'Dale Posted September 28, 2013 Share Womens elite racing looks a lot less organised vs the boys. That just a funtion of less sponsor money = less professional? The teams have splintered quite a bit.I reckon the teams are trying to regroup. SA rider Ashleigh is a freelancer today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted September 28, 2013 Share Ashleigh near the front on the longest climb if the course.A good sign. How many laps left?I think it's 16 kms a lap or something.Prob 4 laps left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie NL Posted September 28, 2013 Share Ashleigh is climbing very comfortably. Reckon she should try to get away on lclimbs in last loop to avoid getting crushed by orange army Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted September 28, 2013 Share Ashleigh is climbing very comfortably. Reckon she should try to get away on lclimbs in last loop to avoid getting crushed by orange army It is 3 kms to the finish after the last climb I think.Not an easy run-in for a climber type that hopes to surge away.

Dutch thunder thighs team seem to be faster on descent and flats. Plus have a couple of riders they can burn off for Vos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
