Nah the article says she is Femke Herygers, daughter of Paul Herygers, cyclocross world champ in 1994. So you can win one of his jerseys0 -

In other news Sharon Laws is 3rd placed after the prologue of the Vuelta a El Salvador, with Hannah Barnes 31st, but just 51" behind. The next stage looks exciting in profile, but I can't make out the vertical; could be 1000m or 100m of climbing!

Beat me to it TWH! Good win for Lizzie Armitstead though. First race of the 2014 World Cup.

Your right Pross, It was a bit harsh. Lizzy can ride a bike, no dispute there.
Just Vos is so good. like the female Eddy Merckx.
It was not meant as a dig but totally come across that way :oops:
I take it back and if Lizzy is reading this, well done , great win.0 -

Very odd. Who would have thought you'd dedicate your life to the sport and you win a hoover and a toaster!!! Really would have been worth not giving anything at all.Contador is the Greatest0 -
Probably something to do with the sponsors and there is hardly a surplus of those around for women's racing at the moment; perhaps the equivalent of sausages or a nice cheese.0
