Cycling: Sylvain Georges wins stage six

  The Frenchman found himself out alone in front for the second half of the 186.3 kilometre (115.7 mile) stage from Palmdale to Big Bear Lake after leading a seven-man breakaway.     He managed to hang on as the main field started to catch him while he pedalled his way to the end of the lung-bursting stage, crossing the line after five hours, seven minutes and six seconds.
