Teutenberg storms to twelfth win of season
Columbia-Highroad's Ina-Yoko Teutenberg sprinted to her twelfth victory of the 2009 season on Saturday, in stage four of the Tour of Grazia-Orlova in the Czech Republic. In what is proving to be an exceptional season for Teutenberg, the German's latest victory came after she made it into the break of the day on the short but challenging stage between Czechowice and Legionow.
"There were initially eight of us, but two riders crashed early on," Teutenberg said. "Then in the sprint, I was able to beat the other five. It was not an easy sprint at all because I was tired after racing hard through the mountains, and again in the time trial stage held early today. I did know what the finish would be like because we'd done about seven laps of the final circuit, which was an advantage, but I'd been working full on all the way through the stage, so I finished completely empty. I just managed to win it, by the skin of my teeth."
Her latest win may have been close, but there's no denying that Teutenberg has gone from strength to strength in 2009. The Columbia-Highroad rider has already been victorious this year in races as varied as the Redlands Classic in the USA and the Tour of Flanders World Cup round in Belgium.
"It's all because of a really good winter of training that gave me good form in the spring," Teutenberg said. "Flanders [in early April] has been the top win so far, but I've been able to hold the form all the way through to May."
Grazia-Orlova ends on Sunday with a hilly 100-kilometre stage starting and finishing in Orlova. Columbia-Highroad's best-placed rider overall is Luise Keller of Germany, in fifth place.
