The Boels Dolmans Cycling Team staked their claim of Mt. Baldy at the midpoint of the Tour of California Women's Race, with the powerhouse duo of Katie Hall and Anna van der Breggen arriving at the summit finish together. Hall, the reigning race champion, picked up her first stage win this year, with van der Breggen putting more time into her overall race lead established yesterday when she rode solo to a Stage 1 win. The World Champion will ride into tomorrow's race conclusion in Pasadena with a 29s lead on Hall, who moved up to second place in the overall, and 1:06 up on CCC-Liv's Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio (RSA) in third.
Hall's epic climb catapulted her to the top of the QOM competition, which she has won twice before in this race, with Blanca Liliana Moreno Canchon (Astana), and van der Breggen still leading the Sprint competition by a large margin.
The Boels Dolmans duo took the lead on the steepest part of the climb up the mountain and was followed by Moolman-Pasio (CCC - Liv) in third for the stage. Before Boels Dolmans attacked, Kathrin Hammes (WNT ROTOR Pro Cycling Team) and Omer Shapira (CANYON//SRAM Racing), who earned the Breakaway from Heart Disease Most Courageous Rider Jersey for time spent in a solo lead up the steep gradient, were out front as the last standing from the three-woman breakaway, with Coryn Rivera (Team Sunweb) having fallen back to the chase group. Olga Zabelinskaya (Cogeas Mettler Look Pro Cycling Team) then made an appearance in the lead group along with Moolman-Pasio.
Before the climbing began, speeds were high (nearly 30mph), as the peloton pushed off for Stage 2 presented by Visit California from Ontario and Valcar Cylance Cycling kept up the pace trying to thin out the lead group. Their rider Elisa Balsamo placed second for yesterday’s stage and went into today leading the TAG Heuer Best Young Rider competition, however, Juliette Labous (Team Sunweb) overtook that lead today.
Leah Kirchmann (Team Sunweb) was top Canadian in 16th at 2:16 back and sits 15th in the GC at 2:53 back.
