Tour de Georgia stage two wrap and comments

Reported by Mark Zalewski and Eddie Monnier

The Austrian Peter Wrolich (Gerolsteiner) was the strongest sprinter and the lucky winner of the second stage of the Tour de Georgia. In the downhill finish in Rome, Georgia, Wrolich caught the right wheel for the last few hundred metres - the one of Lance Armstrong, who was right behind Levi Leipheimer - and managed to outsprint "The Boss", who used a 54 chainring to test his finishing powers, but finally had to give in to the specialists to cross the line in third position behind Saunier’s Manuel Quinziato. South African sprinter Robert Hunter will go into the stage three time trial with the leader’s jersey, with fellow sprinter Wrolich placed second on the General Classification that will very probably get shaken up on Thursday.
