Emma Pooley takes her second Trofeo Binda.
Emma Pooley takes her second Trofeo Binda and the World Cup leaders jersey. Some day, the peloton will learn that they can’t allow Emma Pooley (Team Garmin-Cervélo) get too far away in a long, hilly race; until that day the British champion will just keep on winning.
Pooley attacked alone, in her own fashion, and stayed away to take the second Trofeo Alfredo Binda of her career.
The chase group was led over the line by Swedish champion Emma Johansson (Hitec Products-UCK), who outsprinted Annemiek Van Vleuten (Netherlands) on the uphill finishing straight.
