Lithuanian Edita Pucinskaite was one of those riders affected in the World Championships in Stuttgart, when a barrier on the left hand side of the road literally shattered the women's field, taking out several of the race favourites, who had to scramble to get back on. But the chase cost energy, leaving some of the pre-race favourites without chances, like Pucinskaite, who finished 60th, ten minutes down. Other riders affected in the crash were Judith Arndt (21st), Priska Doppmann (26th), Maribel Moreno Allue (14th) and Regina Bruins, who did not finish the race.
