Lieke Nooijen (Visma-Lease a Bike) powered across the 22.2km time trial course in southwestern Québec from the middle wave of riders and easily won the Chrono Féminin de Gatineau in Canada on Friday.
US time trial champion Emily Ehrlich (Virginia's Blue Ridge TWENTY28) was the last rider on course but could not match the dominant pace set by the Dutchwoman and finished second, 41 seconds back. She did disrupt a Visma podium sweep, going 7 seconds faster than Margaux Vigié, and dropping Carlijn Achtereekte to fourth.
