With all due respect to Mark Cavendish, but he may not even be the best sprinter on Team Columbia - HTC. That distinction belongs to Ina Yoko-Teutenberg (Columbia - HTC Women), who won yesterday's 109.2km Stage 4 of the 20th Giro Donne in Porto Sant'Elpidio.
The victory was Teutenberg's 20th on the year. Kirsten Wild (Cervelo TestTeam) and Monia Baccaille (S.C. Michela Fanini Record Rox) would finish second and third respectively.
The top of the General Classification would remain relatively unchanged with Emma Pooley (Cervelo TestTeam) staying in the catbird seat for the second consecutive day.
