MONTREAL (AP) — Demi Vollering followed up her Women’s Tour de France triumph last month by winning the women’s world road cycling title in Montreal on Saturday.
The Dutch rider, who won the Women’s Giro d’Italia in June, finished just ahead of Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney. Elisa Longo Borghini was third.
“I still cannot believe it,” Vollering told TNT Sports. “We worked so hard for this today. The whole team was riding so strong from the start to the finish. We took the race into our own hands.
“In the end it worked out. In the end all the effort we did earlier in the race worked out to get this result.”
Defending champion Magdeleine Vallieres was part of a 15-rider crash.
