Spela Kern (Slovenia) was the next to try and get away from the grip of the peloton. While no one was really making a big move in the marquee teams, they also seemed to be of no mine to let anyone get a big gap either. Even at 54 kilometers to race, the big moves were yet to happen. Kern may have gone on the attack just to relieve the race boredom she must have been feeling. It seemed the strong riders were more interested in a race of attrition than trying to put their rivals into serious difficulty. As of yet, no one was willing to risk losing the race in order to win it. Will it all come down to the final lap?
