The weather was overcast and warm at the start of the Time Trial stage in Rome, Georgia. There was intermittent light rain throughout the day. The rain kept the roads wet and the times slow. Many riders had problems cornering, and decided to take it easy before the next two hard stages.
The Early part of the TT test was dominated by Team CSC. First it was USA TT champion David Zabriskie, then it was Brian Vandborg. And later, it was Olympic hero, Bobby Julich.

Zabriskie hung in for a fine 2nd place overall, thanks to a very fast speed 2/3 into the race. He held the best time at the top of Mt. Alto, a climb that surprised many. Soon, Zabriskie was bettered by no-fuss Floyd Landis and Chris Baldwin. Floyd is an animal of speed, ate up the course to post a time just a nip under 40 minutes. It was a blazing time by Landis, on a wet course, that gave him the win today.

Bobby Julich put in a good time and so did Tom Danielson. Nathan O'Neill is always strong at the TT and rode well today, with a solid 5th. Question marks are surrounding Lance Armstrong, who came in with a "slow" time. All in all, today was a very exciting race for Floyd Landis and the fans.
