Gail Longenecker (USA) 7.37.18 1.43.82 36.222Complete results from Stephan van Uijtregt, Race Organisation Giana Roberge ReportsToday's 4.7 kilometre, flat, windy, four corner course was held on the graceful bike paths available to cyclists, commuters, and all physically active people in Holland. They are clean, well marked, wide, and complete. Obviously, a lot of planning was used when these paths were created. Although the terrain for the race was straight forward; the wind and rain were a factor. We were extremely lucky that it was just raining and not the torrential down pours of the previous day.Leontien Van Morsel was first off and laid down a time not to be touched. As the evening continued the wind died down; unfortunately, I was fourth in the starting house. However, after all 101 women gave it their best effort, I was in fourth in the results as well. Emily Robbins and Julie Young both had competitive rides positioning them in 13th and 15th respectively. Stage 2 is 110 kilometers and does not start until 4:30, promising rain, wind, and the assurance of a late night. Fortunately for the staff, the race organizers planned ahead, and all starts are late, making the mechanic's and soigneur's jobs a little easier. |
