March 02, 2008

High Road's youngest rider, Emilia Fahlin took her second victory of the season winning the sprint out of a break of five at the Merced Downtown Grand Prix. The High Road women were agressive from the start with Anderson staying away solo for the majority of the race. When caught Fahlin countered opening up an immediate gap with one other rider. Eventually Anderson followed an attack bridged to the pair making it four. In the final laps Mara Abbott also made it across to the break going straight to the front for the final lap. Anderson attacked setting up the sprint for Fahlin. Abbott took third, Anderson fourth and Anke Wichmann won the bunch sprit for fifth place.
