Zug WIC Results

The Zug World Inline Cup was held on Saturday. Alexandra Vivas and Tamara Llorens were present from the Bont Wheels Team. Kelly Matinez is still in Colombia but will be back for the next race in Biel and I am in Taiwan for the World Games which start on the 17th.


Due to road works the course this year took another route. Some would call the diverted course dangerous, while others technical. I wasn't there but from watching the video of the new course it looked very tricky and there looked to be quiet a few dangerous sections if not taken with caution.

Both the ladies and mens race finished in a bunch sprint and from photos it looks like it was a dry race. Both of the Bont girls finished in the top 5 with Alexandra finishing 3rd and Tamara 4th.

Womens Top 10
1. Cecilia Baena
2. Jana Gegner
3. Alexandra Vivas (Bont Wheels)
4. Tamara Llorens (Bont Wheels)
5. Cindy Etonno
6. Andrea Hartichelar
7. Giovanna Turciarelli
8. Tina Struver
9. Laura Ghezzi
9. Katja Ulbrich

The Zug race is also the Swiss National Marathon Championships. The first Swiss skater in the womens race this year was Livia Meier from the World Inline Center Bont Team who is now the new Swiss National Marathon Champion.
