June 15 update: The traditional final stage of this fine race is in Saint Georges, base camp for all the stages. But, this hilly circuit race is no ceremonial final stage. In 2011, Svein Tuft got away on the final descent and won by 18s and last year Bruno Langlois (Garneau-Quebecor-Norton Rose) won from a successful break. Francisco Mancebo gave himself a little more breathing room on Stage 5, but there are still two riders within eight seconds of the lead. — Steve
