5th Formido Holland Ladies Tour - 2.9.1Netherlands, September 2-7, 2001Main Page Results Previous Stage Anna Millward's diary Stage 2 - September 3: Leiden - Leiden, 116 kmRossner in yellowBy Giana Roberge, Saturn Cycling Team Today's second stage of the Ladies Tour of Holland again featured rain and wind. Along the 116 kilometre loop were plenty of cobbled and narrow sections of road, enabling the strong women at the front to initiate breaks simply by keeping the pace high. After her strong showing yesterday, Leontien Van Moorsel and her Farm Frites Team rode at the front to protect the much sought after Yellow Leader's Jersey. However, in the end, it was Saturn's Petra Rossner claiming the stage and taking the Yellow Jersey from Holland's Darling, Van Moorsel. Once again the aggression began in the 4 kilometre neutral zone through Leiden. Within seven kilometres the field was stretched thin and began to break into four groups. Saturn's Anna Millward made a move into a break with Van Moorsel, and Acca Due Teammates, Mirjam Melchers and Diana Ziliute. Along with these were other riders from yesterday's break including Debby Mansveld. Millward was hesitant to work the break without teammate Rossner present. However, within a kilometre, Saturn guest rider Judith Arndt motored Rossner to the break, and immediately the group of nine began taking time away from the group of 27 chasers. Notably absent from the break were the Beltman sisters, who were both present in yesterday's crucial break. Although a chase ensued for the remaining 100 kilometres, the time gap yo-yoed between 50 seconds and as much as two minutes, and it was 1'27 at the finish. Riding with the single purpose of a stage win in mind, Arndt attacked the break continually forcing Ziliute and Van Moorsel to chase. Meanwhile, Rossner sat on the back preparing for the duel in the final 200 meters. A late attack from Acca Due in the last 400 meters looked to be the winning move, but Millward's tenacious determination to see Rossner first across the line, brought her to the two hundred meter mark in first position. Crossing the line ahead of Debby Mansveld in second, and Van Moorsel in third garnered Rossner enough bonus seconds to claim not only the win, but the Yellow Jersey as well and the Green Sprinter's Jersey. Tomorrow's stage in Oss features 103 technical kilometres. However, the honour of claiming the Overall Title of the Tour of Holland is still many windy and rainy kilometres away.
