Canadian riders Allison Beveridge and Jasmin Duehring finished fourth and fifth overall, respectively, at the conclusion of the Berlin 6 Day competition last weekend. The two Olympic bronze medalists are competing at the Berlin and Copenhagen 6 Day races between January 25th and February 4th, as part of their preparation for the UCI Track Cycling World Championships at the end of February.
Beveridge won the overall Omnium on Day 2 of competition, as well finishing second with Duehring in the Madison on Day 3. Duehring had wins in the Points Race (Day 1) and Tempo Race (Day 2).
Duehring commented, "just like London [6 Day], it was a really strong field. It's really encouraging to get some good results, but there were some big names missing, like the British team, so we still have a lot of work to do leading into the world championships."
Beveridge agreed with her team mate, saying "we definitely had some ups and downs over the days, but it was good to take some wins and we're looking forward to Copenhagen next week and the world championships in a month."
