De Goede to defend leader's jersey in Flèche Wallonne

Suzanne de Goede of Equipe Nürnberger will look to defend her lead in the World Cup ranking this week in the Flèche Wallonne. The 24 year-old Netherlander currently leads with 128 points ahead of High Road's Judith Arndt (82 points) and Chantal Beltman (81 points).

She will be supported in the race by Trixi Worrack, Claudia Häusler, Eva Lutz, Edita Pucinskaite and Modesta Vzesniauskaite. Lutz finished second in the Ronde van Gelderland on Saturday.

Vzesniauskaite, who missed a year's worth of racing due to a virus, finished second in the recent Grand Prix Rollers Chambery le Vieux.
