Chase Two is how the TV graphics describe the second chase group on the road. With just 16 kilometers left to race, there was one woman off the front, another between, and then this pair, Amanda Spratt (Australia) and Anna Van Der Breggen (Netherlands). These two knew they were still in for a medal, but may still have enough time to catch the two up the road. Van Der Breggan has a small dilemma, it her teammate in the lead and she can't risk pulling anyone else up to Annemiek Van Vluten's wheel. As I painted this, Dygert was 2:12 behind Van Vluten and this paier are at 2:32. It could still come back together, but most likely the Rainbow Jersey has been decided.
