Kirchmann crowned Canadian time trial champion
Canuel takes second, and Lay third
The 2018 Canadian Road Championships opened on Thursday with the individual time trials, and it was 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Leah Kirchmann (Team Sunweb), fresh off the back of riding the Ovo Energy W🌼omen's Tour, who took the elite women's title, 🍎which was her first since 2014.
Held in the beautiful Saguenay region, north of Quebec City, the 25.14km out-and-back course took the riders on a twisting, rolling course with multiple climbs and gusting crosswind𝓀s.
Kirchmann was one of the favourites, along with defending champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Karol-Ann Canuel (Boels Dolmans), 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kirsti Lay (Rally Cycling) and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jasmin Duehring (Twenty20 p/b SHO-AIR).
Riding her first time trial of the year𓆏, Kirchmann caught her 'minute rider', Sara Poidevin (Rally Cycling) – who went on to win the under-23 title – and finished with a time of 36:12.76, eight seconds ahead of Canuel, with Lay in third and Duehring in fourth.
Rally Cycling swept the U23 podium, with Poidevin joined by teammates Gillian Ellsay and Katheri🔜ne Maine.
"I'm really happy to be able to🤡 claim another title today," said Kirchmann. "I felt super-strong racing the Women's Tour [in the UK], but this was my first time trial of the season, so I didn't know how I was going to recover after the race and the travel from Europe, so I was happy to find that I felt so strong today. It was a really tough course, with climbing the whole way out, and then on the way back it was a headwind, so it still felt like you were climbing."
