Cervélo-Lifeforce marked the second World Cup race
24 March, 2008 – On today’s Easter Monday, the top class women cyclists met each other at the second UCI World Cup race of this season, the Trofeo Alfredo Binda race in Cittiglio in the Province of Varese (ITA). The competition over a distance of 120 km was clearly marked by the Cervélo-Lifeforce Pro Cycling
Team.
The team with Priska Doppmann launched about 40 km ahead of the finish the decisive attack where also Miho Oki (Menikini-Selle Italia) and the later winner Emma Pooley (Specialized Designs for Women) took part. Pooley could increase her gap to the main group while Doppmann and Oki drop back. Several attacks followed, made also by Doppmann and Pascale Schnider, but Emma Pooley stayed in the lead until the end of the race.
The main peloton with Joanna Kiesanowski (ranked 12th), Priska Doppmann (ranked 18th) and Kristin Armstrong (ranked 21st) arrived at the finish more than one minute behind the winner Pooley. The sprint for the second place was won by Suzanne De Goede ahead of Diana Ziliuete, who was ranked third.
On the schedule of the Cervélo-Lifeforce Pro Cycling Team are now two additional races in Italy. On 29th of March the team will compete at the GP Costa Etrusca-Giro dei comuni Montescudaio-Riparbella and on 30th of March, they will be on the start of the GP Costa Etrusca-Giro dei comuni Castellina M. MA- Santa Luce. Afterwards, the third World Cup competition will take place with the „Ronde van Vlaanderen/Tour des Flandres“ in Belgium on April, 6th.
