Bessette wins stage 4 and takes lead

Saturn's Lyne Bessette climbed to first place in the "Head to Head" 5.1 km time trial against Office Depot's Jeannie Longo in Stage 4 of the HPWC. With a winning time of seven minutes, three seconds, Bessette also pushed Longo back to second place to become the overall race leader.

Although Longo still holds the record for the stage finishing in six minutes, 54 seconds in 1999, she finished 22 seconds short of her record to take second place. Saturn's Kimberly Bruckner took third place in the stage, elevating her overall standing from fifth to fourth place.

Longo could regain her lead however, if she does well in Stage 6, a 28.8-mile circuit race scheduled to take place at 6:30 p.m. (MST) this afternoon.

"It's always a little bit of a nervous situation when leading but I have great teammates," said Bessette afterwards.

"First a nap, then I will think about it," commented Jeannie Longo when asked about her strategy for Stage 5.
