San Luis Obispo, CA – HTC-Highroad's Tony Martin and Judith Arndth placed their stamp of authority on the Copenhagen TT course and won both the Elite Men's and Women's World Time Trial Championships this week. Arndt won Gold in the Elite Women's TT on Tuesday with a commanding gap of 20 seconds over the other contenders. This is Arndt's first World Time Trial Rainbow Jersey, and her twelfth win of the season.
Martin followed up Arndt's victory with one of his own on Wednesday, dominating the field and setting the fastest times at every check point. Martin finished a minute and fifteen seconds ahead of silver medalist, Bradley Wiggins. "The course was pretty flat," said Martin, "I normally would prefer a few climbs, but I was able to find a good rhythm and really push myself at every opportunity to accelerate."
HTC-Highroad's Bert Grabsch finished fourth behind Cancellara, while Martin took his eighth win this year with five of said victories in time trials. This marks HTC-Highroad's second rainbow jersey this week, and the one hundred and eighteenth win of the 2011 season.
