Report by Dominique Perras

On a 159km flat stage hampered by strong winds, Slovenian Marko Kump won a 6 man sprint on the streets of Jonquière (Québec, Canada) ahead of German Nico Keinath and Frenchman Johan Lebon in a time of 3h47m19s. The Slovenian also grabbed the yellow jersey with a lead of 2 seconds over Lebon.

Throughout the stage a flurry of attacks assisted by heavy crosswinds in sections blew the field apart. Kump cleverly outfoxed the final group of 6 men that had managed to drop of the last survivors (of the peloton) with 20km to go. “In the last 3km there where a lot of attacks, mostly by the Smukulis of Lithuania, I was patient and I let the Frechman LeBon chase him down every time as I could feel he was desperate to win, and I outsprinted them with 300 metres to go”

The best North American of the day was Ryan Anderson who was able to stay with the lead group but missed the last move of 6: “We thought it would be a bunch sprint day but it turned out to be a really hard day. I am thankful to have had the support of my teammates Keir Plaice and Joel Dion-Poitras. However, in the last hour I was outnumbered and it became impossible to cover every single attack”. Anderson is now 12th overall at 1min34seconds behind Kump.

Saturday is a double day with Stage 3 in the morning being a 103km hilly circuit race, followed in the afternoon by stage 4, an 8.5km individual time time trial on the same loop.

The UCI Nations Cup-Ville de Saguenay is the 5th of 6 races part of the UCI Nations Cup for the world's best riders aged 19 to 22 years old. It is the only event of this series to be held outside Europe. It will be held over 5 stages from June 4th to 7th 2009.
