Ladies Tour of Qatar (UCI 2.1) Stage 3
03.02.2012
We had further improvement, still not strong enough to go with the
12 rider break, but at least we managed to work to bring it all
together. Finally a bunch sprint, and won by Kirsten Wild (Holland)
as in stage 1. Sara finished 15 in the sprint. Judith Arndt
(GreenEDGE) won the general classification. The race was a nice
warmup for the coming training camp in Grand Canaria :-)

Ladies Tour of Qatar (UCI 2.1) Stage 2
02.02.2012
The longest stage, from Al Zubara Fort to Madinat al Shamal was
another windy and sandy affair. Again there was a small strong group
consisting of Specialized and GreenEDGE riders that broke away in
the crosswinds. In the end, Trixi Worrack (Specialized) won ahead of
TT World champion Judith Arndt (GreenEDGE). Arndt is now the new
overall leader.
Lise Nøstvold and Elisa Longo Borghini came in 3 minutes behind
Worrack/Arndt in a 30-girl group, while the rest of the girls
finished in the peloton.

Ladies Tour of Qatar (UCI 2.1) Stage 1
01.02.2012
Extremely windy conditions made stage 1 of the Ladies' Tour of Qatar
very eventful. After taking off early making the best of the
tailwind, 7 riders battled it out for victory in Al Khor.
Netherland's Kirsten Wild sprinted to victory capturing the first
overall leader's Golden Jersey of this 2012 event.
A perfect start for the winner of the 2009 and 2010 editions. For
our team, the start was not satisfactory. We suffered several
mechanical problems, and the also we missed the breaks. All riders
finished in the peloton.
