Today's 4th stage is a 29.5 KM (18.3 miles) individual time trial in the town of Cholet.
The riders start every 2 minutes and they are racing the clock. No team for support. They get to use their time trial bikes. It's basically 35-40 minutes of pain.
The time trial was won by Stefan Schumacher of Germany which put him into the yellow jersey over Kirchen and Millar by 12 seconds.
The Jersey status:
Maillot Jaune (yellow jersey - overall leader) - Stefan Schumacher of Germany who rides for Gerolsteiner
Green Jersey (points leader for sprinting) - Kim Kirchen of Luxembourg who rides for the American team, Team Columbia
Polka Dot Jersey (best in the mountains) - Thomas Voeckler of France who is the leader of the French team BOUYGUES TELECOM
White Jersey (best young rider - under 25) - Thomas Lovkvist of Sweden who rides for Team Columbia
Au revoir
