18th. Tour de Burkina Faso: Stage Six (Monday)
Mon, 1 Nov 2004 16:50:19 -0500 (EST in North America)
An amputated stage
The 6th stage that went through parts of the Boromo-Houndé stage (a few days ago) but in opposite
direction, suffered modifications for the same reasons. The state of the road not making it possible
for the riders to compete in full safety, the 42 kilometres on the way to Boromo were indeed
cancelled. The cyclists however signed the start sheets at the start in Pa, before heading by bus
to the site of the official start. Only 115 kms left!
Playing with the peloton
Taking of in rather cautious fashion due to the difficulties to come, the riders weren't as keen to
attack then in the previous days. After about 10 kms, Gunter Cuylits (Bel), pink jersey leader broke
away from the peloton, increasing the gap at first to up to 20''. He then carried on his effort
alongside Olivier Keita (Sen), before a third member, Bart Vendrig (Hol), made it to the leading
group. Their lead moves close to a minute at kilometre 30 before dropping down to 35'' twenty
kilometres later and climb back up to a maximum 1'05'' at km 63. This game of hide and seek won't
however prove to be decisive as the peloton increases the chase.
One kilometre with a punctured tire
A bunched peloton eventually makes it to Sabou, 25 kilometres from the finish and the first metres
of laterite paths. Karel Pattyn, who had carried the yellow jersey two days ago for a very short
period, has very clear plans for this difficult portion and tries to fly off to a stage success.
Halfway through, he has a 50'' lead on the peloton and his advantage grows to 1'25'', 8 kms from
the finish. But the track proves to be lethal for the Dutchman: in less than 5 kms, he suffers
four punctures. Caught by the group, he leaves the leadership to two new adventurers
Abdoulaye Thiam (Sen) and Joris Van Mechelen (Bel) who give it a go. The Senegal rider punctures
in the following kilometre. Van Mechelen finds himself alone with a 15'' lead, when he also punctures
a tire just 1 km from the finish. He however carries on riding and keeps a tiny two second lead that
gives him stage victory ahead of Denis Flahaut and yellow jersey rider A.Wahab Sawadogo.
