Sunday's 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour of Guangxi women's race will be 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Amanda Spratt's first race since takingღ the silver medal aꦕt the World Championship road race in Innsbru🍃ck, Austria, last month, and her last race of the 2💜018 season.

Spratt will head a strong 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mitchelton-Scott squad for the final round of the UCI Women's WorldTour in China, and will be accompanied by fellow Australians 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Gracie Elvin, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lucy Kennedy and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Manly, as well as New Zealand road race champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Georgia Williams.

"En route to China. A new experience for me b♌ut I'm excited for my last race of the season with Mitchelton-Scott and looking forward to supporting my teammates," Spratt tweeted on Thursday.

While Spratt and Kennedy will enjoy the d🐻ay's main climb that comes just over 100 kilometres into the 145.8-kilometre-long one-day race based around Guilin, Elvin and Williams will be wai🐎ting in the wings for if the race comes down to a bunch sprint.

Mitchelton-Scott directeur sportif Martin Vestby said that he believe🌌s 😼the team's five-rider squad is a good combination of both climbers and sprinters.

"It's a race that can be quite open, with a mix of teams and riders, so I thin🌠k we can follow a little bit but not be too aggressive," Vestby said on the team's website.

"We have Lucy and 'Spratty' who are strong on the climbs, but it's still quite far to the finish – around 30km from the top of the climb – so ꧙there's still a good chance it will be some sort of peloton arriving together at the finish line.

"Hopefully they can all survive and we can have numb🌳ers to play with in the final," Vestby continued. "Gracie and Georgia are our options for the sprint, but the riders will need to be honest with each other as to how they're feeling after the travel, and will need to talk and decide a little bit 🐼out on the road."

Kennedy – t🌟he 2017 Oceani꧃a time trial champion, who finished fourth overall at the Santos Women's Tour and fifth at Strade Bianche this year – is looking forward to an unpredictable race in a country she hasn't raced in before.

"It's my first trip to China so I'm looking forward to racing somewhere completely 🦩different," she said. "Unlike most of the racing the women's peloton does in China, the course does have some hills.

"While they don't look particularly hard, and are a long way from the finish, it's hard to predict how the race will unfold. At this time of year everyone's form is a bit unknown. We'ℱre starting with a small team, bu⛄t still have a lot of versatility to challenge either in a sprint finish or if it breaks up over the climbs."
