Preview

After a brief break following La Fleche Wallonne (April 18), the UCI women's World Cup gets going again for two rounds in America. This Saturday, June 2 is the Montreal World Cup in Canada, followed by the First Union Liberty Classic in Philadelphia on June 10.

The circuit used tomorrow is similar (but not identical) to that used in the 1974 World Championships, 1976 Olympic Games and Men's World Cup from 1988 to 1992. It covers 12 laps of 8.3 kilometres, including the famous Mont Royal Climb which makes it one of the hardest World Cup races.

Leading the series at the moment is Australian Anna Millward (Saturn) on 200 points, ahead of Mirjam Melchers (Acca Due O) on 165 points. Both riders can do well in this race, but it may favour Millward given that she finished second in the hilly Fleche Wallonne.

One of Millward's greatest challengers will come from young Canadian star, Geneviève Jeanson (Rona) who has been embarrassing both men's and women's fields in domestic US racing so far this season. Fellow Canadian Lyne Bessette, who recently won the Tour de l'Aude, may be on hand to help Millward or go for the win herself, as the parcours suits her climbing talents.

The start is at 1130 Canadian Time/0830 USA West Coast/1730 Central European Summer Time/0130 Australian Eastern Time. Cyclingnews.com will be providing live lap by lap updates, right after the Giro, the last part of which will be covered approximately 2 hours prior to this.
