Racing in the Women’s T1 class, Shelley Gautier earned the silver medal in the time trial for the second straight week, crossing the line behind Yulia Sibagatova of Russia, a newcomer to the UCI World Cup scene.
In the Women’s C5 class, Nicole Clermont also climbed on the podium, taking the silver medal. Clermont completed the 14.5 km course with a time of 20:50.
Marie-Claude Molnar rolled to the third place of the Women’s C4, earning her third medal in three races this season. Molnar took third today with a time of 21:32 on the 14.5 km course, showing a time deficit of 45seconds on the winning time of American Shawn Morelli.
Of note, Marie-Eve Croteau will not race at this World Cup to better prepare for the upcoming World Championships in Nottwil (SUI) and Parapan-American Games in Toronto. Given that the results last weekend met her short-term objectives, she will now focus on controlled training sessions.
Rico Morneau, a Canadian para-cyclist racing as an Independent in Switzerland, won the bronze medal in the Men’s H3 class.
This second leg of the UCI Para-Cycling World Cup Tour continues Monday and Tuesday with the road races.
Day 2
Gautier climbed back to the top of the podium in the road race at the 2015 UCI Para-Cycling World Cup in Yverdon-les-bains in Switzerland.
With her win, Gautier conserves the White Jersey as the World Cup leader in the women’s T1 class.
Charles Moreau is continuing on his excellent season, crossing the finishing line in fourth place today in the Men’s H3 class. He posted a time of 1:35:12, about 30seconds behind the third place finisher.
The second set of road races will be presented tomorrow to conclude this second World Cup leg of the 2015 season.
