Toni's European escapades

2007 has been another busy cycling year for Toni. Currently based back at the BikeNZ training base in Limoux in the south of France, Toni is coming into form for a possible ride at the World Champs at the end of September.
In the recent Tour of Bretagne Toni placed 3rd in the opening stage and after slipping to 5th on GC midway through the tour, had a strong showing in the Time Trial, to lift herself back up to 3rd in the overall by the end of the tour.
Toni is currently contesting the Trophee d'Or feminin, one of the last big tours before the World Champs. With this in mind all the top teams are present, using the race as a last minute tune up. NZ has included Jo Kiesanowski in its line-up for this tour. Jo usually rides for her professional team, but they have decided not to contest this tour. Toni is relishing the chance to race alongside someone who is capable of placing high on the stage finishes and assisting Jo towards this goal.
During the 1st stage Jo finished 2nd, so the teams efforts were rewarded. Stage 2 occurred overnight and the text I received from Toni read simply..."wow, was a hard day at the office, I survived!"
I'll attempt to post results as they come to hand, although I can't find any results on the web yet.
