Dutch man-of-speed, Max Van Heeswijk, welcomed the Eneco Tour to the Netherlands. Today the peloton crossed the border from Belgium to the Netherlands and Van Heeswijk (Discovery Channel) took the sprint win. By winning stage 1, the Dutchman ousted the Belgian, Rik Verbrugghe, from the overall lead.

The storms of yesterday had passed and drier weather was on tap as the riders made their way out of the city of Geel. In the race lead was Rik Verbrugghe (Quick-Step). The Belgian quickly came under fire as the race made its way on the 192K course from Geel to Mierlo. It was a flat course that was suited for a sprint showdown.

The fiery little figure of Victor Hugo Peña (Phonak) busted a solo move early on in the day. He garnered up to 3 minutes before Verbrugghe's grey-squadra shut him down. From there more attacks were launched, and Quick-Step covered them until the right one went clear.

The duo of Rudi Kemna (Shimano-Memory Corp) and Erwin Thijs (MrBookmaker-Sports Tech) were allowed their freedom with 45K remaining. The experienced Dutch-Belgian combo rode clear with a one minute advantage for most of the following kilometers. Others tried to bridge and join the duo, but Quick-Step was having none of it.

Down to 25K remaining and the Dutch-Belgian duo still had a minute advantage. However, their advantage came tumbling down on the closing three circuits when the sprinters teams took control. Just under 10K to go it was lights-out for the two.

The sprinters were left to muscle their way through the twists and turns of Mierlo. There was no sign of the cement-boys, Fassa Bortolo. Their leader, Alessandro Petacchi, decided to relax today due to his finger injury. The teams of T-Mobile, Rabobank and Quick-Step were well represented at the front. But it was the Disco figure of Max Van Heeswijk that was able to power his Trek carbon machine out of the madness. He got an easy-looking win over Marco Zanotti (Liquigas-Bianchi) and Steven De Jongh (Rabobank). Van Heeswijk's bonus seconds put the Dutch rider in the leader's red jersey.
