Thanks to Mark Legg, we’ve got some great photos of the women’s race at the Hoogerheide UCI World Cup in the Netherlands on January 20th.

Normally at UCI World Cup Races, Mark Legg, partner of Katie Compton, is running around like crazy to support Katie. At any given moment, he’s wrenching, washing bikes, delivering warm-up or cool-down clothes, and maybe trying to snap a picture or two, if not all of those things at once.

Sadly for Katie, she’s been suffering from what she calls a “muscle tetanus episode” that prevented her from racing last weekend in Hoogerheide, and has her worlds preparation (and perhaps participation) in doubt. But always the optimists, the couple made the best of the weekend, cheering on their fellow Americans, studying the competition, and snapping some great photos for us. Hanka Kupfernagle (Focus) ended up winning over reigning world champ Salvetat (VSLL Castres) from France by over a minute, with Wendy Simms (Kona – YourKey Mortgage) the top North American in 5th. Full results below.
