The Rothaus Regio-Tour International takes place across 3 countries - Germany, France and Switzerland.
The final stage of the 2007 Rothaus Regio-Tour International - Stage 5 - is a 169.1km course. The stage winner was Adrian Palomares Villaplana who slipped clear after a break away group of 8 riders had been brought to heel. His move came with 3 kilometres to go in the race, spoiling Alessandro Petacchi's plans of taking out the final sprint victory.
Winner of the Tour was Spain's Moises Duenas Nevado (Agritubel) who safely travelled within the peloton and allowed his team to cover every move that was attempted as the race wound down.
