Laura Stigger (Specialized) powered to a solo victory in the women's cross country at the Snowshoe UCI MTB World Cup.
The Austrian rider powered away from a four-rider leading group on the third lap and never looked back, opening a half-minute lead before Leona Lecomte (Canyon CLLCTV) came from behind and set off in pursuit, closing down Stigger's gap.
