Not that I ever thought it was
Just watch this - last 3km of the Women's Tour of Quatar stage 2
It's got me psyched right up for a 100 miler today.

Ditto - the effort being put in was spectacular, and the weather shocking.

In reply to Enty: It would be good to see some well funded female teams

Great riding but am I the only one who immediately picked the massive girl in white who was just sitting in holding wheels as the winner?

With four team mates I'd have got one to decoy then the other two to lead me out for a breakaway. Owww I want to ride my bike now.

Most exciting win I've seen was Michele Cooke in either the worlds or Olympics.

Yes. And they don't get much luck with the weather either do they the girls?

In reply to Enty: Is Marianne Vos the best cyclist in the world at the moment? I reckon so.

In reply to Guy: Very probably, having impressive palmares on the track, road and in cyclocross. Apparently she's looking at trying out mtbing this year - I'll be interested in seeing how she does, but wouldn't be surprised if she wins something in the discipline before long.

Good racing but I'm not sure the one in white qualifies as female.....

(or feminine for the pedants out there)
