Team TIBCO – Silicon Valley Bank Captain, Lauren Stephens wins Winston Salem GP!
Lauren Stephens scored her second major win in two weeks Monday following her Gatineau time trial win May 19th. Stephens’ win was made possible by terrific teamwork throughout the race.
Teammate Ingrid Drexel (Mexican National time trial and road race champion) was part of a break of four riders - Ruth Winder (UnitedHealthcare), Kristi Lay (Rally), and Claire Rose (Visit Dallas DNA)who got away with three laps to go. The break was caught on the last lap and that was the cue for Lauren and three other riders - (Leah Thomas (Sho-Air Twenty20), Lauretta Hanson (UnitedHealthcare) and Lizzie Williams (Hagens Berman-Supermint) - to counter attack with just a few kilometres to go. It was on the last QOM climb that Stephens attacked and left the rest of the break behind to solo in for the win.
Lex Albrecht finished 6th and Ingrid finished 8th after her aggressive race, for the team.
“It was a perfectly executed plan from the team” said Sports Director Ed Beamon. "After the break was caught there was a group of twenty who kept attacking each other. Ingrid attacked numerous times which gave Lauren the opportunity to go away. I am very happy with the result but happier with how the team rode together and how tactically astute they were."
Lauren Stephens was also pleased with the team effort: "The team rode really well today and I am happy that I was able to deliver a result for them. I attacked half way up the final climb toward the finish. I had to be patient but it worked. I used my strengths and it's always good to win solo."
