ison and on to Charlottesville, averaging better than 20 miles per hour, the lead swapped again, this time passing to Belgium’s Eric Vanderaerden.
Vanderaerden held off several surges by Tomae aswell as a last-mile uphill sprint challenge by fellow Team 7-11 member Davis Phinnev, of Boulder, Colorado, to win the 107.2 mile fifth stage of the race. He became the first cyclist to win more than one of the race’s 11 stages.
The 837-mile, 10 day cross-country tour ended May 14 in Atlantic City, New Jersey with a 24-mile time trial, which started and ended in front of Trump’s hotel and casino on the famous beachside wooden boardwalk.

As the billionaire real estate developer announced his next tour would be a cross-country, New York to Los Angeles extravaganza, one potential winner complained that a mistake in directions had cost him the title of tour champion.
Vanderaerden, who was challenging leader Dag Otto Lauritzen for the overall championship, entered, the final stage Sunday trailing by 50 seconds. But a wrong turn in a town north of Atlantic City cost Vanderaerden precious seconds, a chance at the tour championship and the $50,000 first prize.
