July 3, 2004 — Norway’s Gunn-Rita Dahle (Multivan/Merida) continued her domination of the elite women’s circuit taking round six of the cross-country World Cup, in Calgary, Alberta. The U.S.A.’s Mary McConneloug was second 46 seconds back with Italy’s Annabella Stropparo just over two minutes behind. Top Canadian was Marie-Hélène Prémont (Rocky Mountain/Business Objects) in fourth with teammate Alison Sydor in seventh and Chrissy Redden (Subaru/Gary Fisher) in 16th. With her top placement Premont practically secured a spot on Canada’s Olympic team heading to Athens and sits in third overall in the World Cup series while Sydor is in 5th overall after today’s race.
