Giro d'Italia Femminile - 2.9.1Italy, June 25-July 9, 2000Stage 13 - July 9: Seren del Grappa-Cordignano, 97 km
Marion Clignet's reportYeah well it's over and ya know what? I AM RELIEVED!! Last stage was Abano to Abano and while we were here last we made the mistake of not checking out the course. First 70km were flat...and it was hot. Was in a break with 2 GAS riders,a Swiss rider, and an Edil Savino. I figured we were fairly safe with two GAS riders willing to work but you know how it is...got caught after about 20km or so, about 13km before the climb. And yes once again at the foot of the steeper part of it I dropped my chain. Chased like a mad woman (which I was) to get back on and saw Tatiana, my best placed team mate on the side of the road. she too had dropped a chain. meanwhile at the front before a longer switchback type of climb Pia Sundstedt attacked and was followed by Bubnenkova and d'Ettore further off. (d'Ettore is a young Italian rider on the Acca Due O team and an ex-junior world champion). I waited for Tatiana who flew by me with Letizia, also on our team and went to the front and started to pound. Our rider was caught, Pia pressed on with Bubnenkova taking major pulls, and well, we chased like hell. In the first series of switchbacks on the descent there must have been an oil spill cause someone fell at every turn...Tatiana fell first so I waited a bit and then hauled on to chase....to save her 7th place GC and blow any oppurtunity for a stage win. Oh well. Pia had a great ride and won the stage with Bubnenkova in 2nd and another Savino rider winning the field sprint. I rode in with my team mates, went to the camper, sat down and sighed a very big sigh. Now? A quick recovery is in order cause Friday starts the World Cup on the track in Torino...yeah! Results1.
