Bronzini bows out with Madrid Challenge stage victory
(Cyclingnews.com)
 


Giorgia Bronzini (Cylance) bowed out from her professional career in style by winning the second and final stage of the Madrid Challenge on Sunday. It had long been known that 2018 would be Bronzini`s final season of racing, and in August the 2010 and 2011 road race world champion announced that she would be moving into a team car, becoming a sports director with the new Trek Factory Racing team, which sees the light of day in 2019. Stage 2 of the Madrid Challenge was a fairytale finish to Bronzini`s 16-year career as she joined a strong breakaway and sprinted to victory in her last-ever UCI Women`s WorldTour race.ADVERTISEMENT `It`s an amazing feeling - the best way to finish my career,` Bronzini said. `Everyone would like to finish like that, winning a WorldTour race. Many of my opponents were happy for me and congratulated me, and that makes me happy because it means that I`ve left my mark in a good way. To end my career in this way is really magical. If I could sign up for another life with this same career, I`d do it. I have no regrets.` Bronzini`s race craft was put to full use one last time during the race when she bridged to a breakaway initiated by her teammate Rossella Ratto. Ratto did a lot of work to keep the break going, and Bronzini took over for the sprint to the line. The Italian said that she knew Olga Zabelinskaya (Cogeas-Mettler) would be an excellent `locomotive` on the final lap. You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
