It's a dream of every outsider, every dark horse, and every loyal domestique: getting into the early breakaway, having it stick, and taking all the glory for yourself. In a most unpredictable third edition of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift, Canadian 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alison Jackson did just that.
Jackson inked﷽ her name into the history books with a tenac📖ious and self-confident ride, parlaying the early attack into a sprint victory in the Roubaix velodrome.
The race organisation added an extra local circuit at the start, making it easier to form a breakaway, Jackson explained. "With a longer start, we have the time to set up the race before the cobbles, so i♋t's not just determined on how🐈 one rides the cobbles and the good luck you get. You can play with the tactics more and we did that today."
An 18-rider group that formed well before the🧔 first section of cobbles were inexplicably given a lead of over five minutes.
By the final stretch of pavé, an elite chasing group with pre-race favourite 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lotte Kopecky closed to within 10 seconds of the leaders – so close th❀ey could se﷽e them on a late, straight section of road in Roubaix.
A headwind, a 🅰huge tolerance for pain, and a zamboni-sized pile of determination from Jackson helped to keep the chasers at bay. With her victorious surge to the line, Jackson danced into the books as the first woman to win Paris-Roubaix i👍n a sprint.
