SsangYong RENNES WIC 2007
InlineTV net の中継がレース途中で中断するほどの激しい雨と風の中で RENNES WIC が戦われました。女子のレースフィニッシュ時には雨が上がり、スタート時にドライを予測してウィールを選択した男子Powerslide勢は直後に降り出した雨で全滅の様相。優勝候補のNicolas Itenが早々にクラッシュしレース離脱するアクシデントがあったものの、またもやMPCウィールを履くRollerbladeが上位をしめました。１３位に入ったNachi Shinozuka はポイント158で総合１３位に、Shinki Yamamoto のポイントはSWICで獲得した10のみで総合６４位と未だに低迷中。World Inline Cup (FIC) in RENNES

WIC Rennes by Bill Begg
Hi Skaters,
The 3rd WIC event for 2007 was for the Tough Guys & Girls, Schneider, Shane Dobbin & Max Presti, along with Jana Gegner, Nicole Begg & Tamara Llorens certainly fit into that category.
The big talking points at present,More breakdown of the racing to follow.
- 3 WIC races, 3 wins for Switzerland in the mens.
- Swiss Giant & Favourite Roger Schneider, has turnt the trend around, returned from the Ice, with impressive performances, with two wins from two starts, Briand & Contin yet to show their true colours, after Ice.
- Two Favoured WIC overall contenders, Nicole Begg & Max Presti, after slow starts, back on track.
- MPC Wheels, the storm Surge a very big factor,in a wet competition in Basel, the Gold Street Fight ideal in the mixed conditions in Rennes, recent Matter domination, has been missing in the wet conditions.
But Max on the new Hyper Stripe, was certainly forcing the pace. The light footed Jana Gegner managed to stay on her feet on Green Matters, till it dried enough, for a dry Finish straight final sprint, where Jana won.- But don't get your MPC wheels mixed up, the Athleticum Girls, made other more fancied ladies teams look like Donkeys in Basel, due to the Storm Charges, but they chose the wrong wheel in Rennes with the Melon coloured wheel & made to looklike novices as they floundered in the wet, Nadiene Gloor & Franski Stampli pulling out, to her credit India Kuhn stayed on & when it dried, reeled in skaters, to salvage 21st place.

Rain...
A bad weekend for the Powerslide teams in Rennes. Finally it seems to be dry so Powerslide as well as Timmerman-Powerslide choose for "dry-weather wheels". Matter with last year number three Yann Guyader also choose the wrong wheels.
The start was good and dry. A lot of Powerslide and Timmerman-Powerslide skaters in front. But after three laps raining started, and never stopped again..After the rain starts, there was immediately a breakaway. First approximately 10 men, later only six, with Maxi Presti, Roger Schneider, Shane Dobbin, Diego Rosero, Fabien Hascout and Pier Davide Romani. As well as Fabien and Roger came back in the breakaway after a crash. With a few laps ago, Roger and Shane start a new breakaway together. Roger won the sprint of Shane, Maxi won the sprint of the second group and became third.

CadoMotus Hilde Goovaerts 4th as Gegner & Schneider win Rennes WIC
CadoMotus' Hilde Goovaerts (BEL) has just finished 4th, contesting a field sprint with 5 others in the lead break of the Rennes WIC Marathon. The final sprint, contested in mixed conditions, was won by Jana Gegner (GER) from Nicole Begg (NZL) and Tamara Llorens (ARG).Although the rain hovered ominously just outside of Rennes at the start of the Women's 46km Rennes Marathon, the race was plagued by gusting winds throughout. Off to a hard start, the pace was forced by members of the Ssangyong and Athleticum teams, as Sportvital RB skaters covered the lead of the pack and countered any breakaway attempts.
Within the first half of the race, several packs were split up out on the course, with skaters from Athleticum and Sportvital leading the front break and other skaters making solo attempts to climb their way from pack to pack to get back to the front of the race.
With 10 girls remaining in the front group, the rain broke through and added to the tough, windy conditions of the race - causing skaters to begin dropping from the lead break. With just a handful of laps remaining and the rain stopping to leave the course wet, 6 girls stayed away in the final minutes of the race to contest a sprint between them. Despite having 3 team members in the break, Sportvital could only manage 3rd, 5th and 6th (Llorens, Neuling and Lardani). Sportvital lead out the sprint, but out of the final turn, Begg and Gegner took over the lead from the Sportvital girls, with Gegner taking the win from Begg (2nd), Llorens (3rd) and CadoMotus Hilde Goovaerts (4th) finishing fast among a very tired group of girls.The CadoMotus ladies now have 6th from the Basel Team Time Trial last week, and a 4th place finish for Hilde in the Rennes Marathon. Congratulations girls!Course féminine roller WIC Rennes 2007
Conditions were nothing short of brutal for the Men's 53km event, with howling winds throughout interspersed with pouring rain during much of the race. Diego Rosero (COL) put in a mammoth amount of work early in the race to separate himself and teammates Shane Dobbin (NZL) and Fabien Hascoet (FRA) and 10-12 others from the main field.
A gap opened later, again thanks to relentless attacking from Rosero, to separate 6 leaders from the other breakaway athletes. This group remained together for a number of laps, increasing their lead over the next group by more than 1 minute. With 4 laps of the 2.9km wet and wind-blown course remaining, Roger Schneider (SWI) attacked strongly, followed only by Shane Dobbin and the two separated themselves from their pursuers - Rosero, Max Presti (ITA), Pier-Davide Romani (ITA) and Fabien Hascoet who, having been dropped earlier, chased his way back to these skaters by the finish.
Roger Schneider emerged the winner in a close finish between him and Shane Dobbin, with the sprint for 3rd among what was left of the breakaway group won by Max Presti. A big effort from Schneider, cracking the attack group with a surge of his own after spending much of the race in a select breakaway containing 3 Sportvital RB team members.
