Mari Holden Outbattles Jeannie Longo-Ciprelli for HP Stage 3
Ketchum, ID, June 11 ˆTwo-time US National Champion Mari Holden (HP Toner) outsprinted race leader Jeannie Longo-Ciprelli (Ebly) of France, and defending champion Linda Jackson (Timex) to win the 61.2-mile HP Color LaserJet Road Race, the third stage of the HP LaserJet Women's Challenge in two hours, 33 minutes and 44 seconds. Midway through the race, at the 8,700-foot Galena summit, the trio broke away and held off the field over the final 30 miles to finish four seconds ahead of a 52-rider chase group. Longo-Ciprelli maintains the overall lead by one minute, 44 seconds over Holden.
An exuberant Holden said of her victory: "I'm really excited, I've never won a road stage here (Women's Challenge). This is my first big international road stage victory ever".
