Horner, Armstrong take stage 2 at Pomona
Chris Horner (Webcor) and the rest of the guys showed up to race Saturday at the Pomona Valley Stage Race, but Horner showed up first, winning a shortened Glendora Mountain Time Trial.
Horner covered the climb in 15:12, putting a minute on Cesar Grajales (Jittery Joe's Coffee) and a further two seconds on Scott Moninger (Health Net).
As the women tackled their second stage, meanwhile, it was Kristin Armstrong (T-Mobile) taking the win at 19.25. Lyne Bessette (Quark) was second best at 19 seconds back, followed by Erin Mirabella (Red 5 Racing) in third at 37 seconds back.
Bessette took over the lead on GC, 11 seconds ahead of Armstrong and 25 seconds up on Susan Palmer-Komar (Genesis Scuba). The winner of stage one, Laura Van Gilder (Genesis Scuba), finished 43rd on the day and slipped to 33rd at 2:33 back.
Racing continues today with the Incycle Puddingstone Road Race (96 miles for men, 72 for women) and concludes on Sunday with the Cannondale Old Town San Dimas Criterium.
