Grand Prix Feminin International - Stage 2
Chrissy Redden reports - Todays 91 km stage took place under hot and humid conditions.
At the 30 km mark, Annie Gariepy (Team Elita) launched an attack that at one point had a gap of 2 minutes on the pack. She was caught at the beginning of the first climb (75km) by a major effort by Team Canada and the Québec Tour-Air Transat who brought the group up to her.
The final climb of the day (8km to the finish) had some very steep and twisting sections that took its toll on the pack.
Tomorrow is a 96.9km stage with 1 sprint and 1 climb (I know I said todays stage had only one climb, but I missed the final climb to the finish - I have a day by day stage description but, my french isn't that good)Stage 2 1 Alison Dunlap USA Germany 2:39.54 2 Alison Sydor CAN Canada s.t. 3 Lyne Bessette CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi 0:12 4 Caroline Alexander GBR Team Elita 0:13 5 Sue Palmer CAN Québec Tour-Air Transat 0:31 6 Élisabeth Chevanne-Brunel FRA Québec Tour-Air Transat 0:40 7 Melanie Dorion CAN Team Elita 0:50 8 Kim Langton CAN Team Elita 0:57 9 Chrissy Redden CAN Canada s.t. 10 Sandy Espeseth CAN BC Team s.t. 11 Sabine Spitz GER Germany 1:43 12 Cybil Diguistini CAN Team Elita 1:59 13 Melanie McQuaid CAN Canada s.t. 14 Anne Samplonius CAN Québec Tour-Air Transat 3:31 15 Teah Goldstein CAN BC Team 3:59 16 Regina Marunde GER Germany 4:01 17 Amy Jarvis CAN Team Elita 4:03 18 Melanie Nadeau CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi 4:26 19 Patricia Sinclair CAN Canada 5:02 20 Karen Timewell CAN BC Team 5:12 21 Allyson Fox CAN Team Ontario 5:50 22 Sophie St-Jacques CAN Team Elita 6:07 23 Annie Gariepy CAN Team Elita 6:14 24 Kathleen Millar CAN Team Ontario 7:59 25 Nadia Roy CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi 8:30 26 Sophie Radecki CAN Team Ontario 9:23 27 Fanny Larivière CAN Québec Tour-Air Transat 10:16 28 Sabine Gentieu FRA Québec Tour-Air Transat s.t. 29 Nora Rösch GER Germany 12:10 30 Simone Esslinger GER Germany 13:10 31 Darnelle Moore CAN BC Team 15:16 Élise Grondin CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi DNF GC 1 Alison Dunlap USA Germany 5:24:50 2 Alison Sydor CAN Canada 0:04 3 Lyne Bessette CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi 0:26 4 Caroline Alexander GBR Team Elita 0:43 5 Sue Palmer CAN Québec Tour-Air Transat 0:55 6 Élisabeth Chevanne-Brunel FRA Québec Tour-Air Transat 6:58 7 Sandy Espeseth CAN BC Team 7:06 8 Melanie Dorion CAN Team Elita 7:10 9 Chrissy Redden CAN Canada s.t. 10 Kim Langton CAN Team Elita 7:13 11 Sabine Spitz GER Germany 8:04 12 Cybil Diguistini CAN Team Elita 8:11 13 Melanie McQuaid CAN Canada s.t. 14 Anne Samplonius CAN Québec Tour-Air Transat 9:38 15 Regina Marunde GER Germany 10:11 16 Teah Goldstein CAN BC Team 10:12 17 Amy Jarvis CAN Team Elita 10:21 18 Melanie Nadeau CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi 10:46 19 Patricia Sinclair CAN Canada 11:33 20 Allyson Fox CAN Team Ontario 12:05 21 Annie Gariepy CAN Team Elita 12:20 22 Sophie St-Jacques CAN Team Elita 12:31 23 Kathleen Millar CAN Team Ontario 14:25 24 Karen Timewell CAN BC Team 16:20 25 Fanny Larivière CAN Québec Tour-Air Transat 16:32 26 Sabine Gentieu FRA Québec Tour-Air Transat 16:46 27 Nadia Roy CAN CC Vezar-Sugoi 20:04 28 Darnelle Moore CAN BC Team 21:40 29 Nora Rösch GER Germany 23:35 30 Simone Esslinger GER Germany 24:38 31 Sophie Radecki CAN Team Ontario 25:39
