Darren Rafferty and Lara Gillespie solid in Euro championships
Ben Healy put in a superb performance on the hilly stage 3 of the Skoda Tour of Luxembourg, soloing to victory and taking over the overall lead in the race. He attacked with 34km remaining to bridge to the Frenchman Bastin Tronchon , later dropping him and reaching the line 15 seconds ahead of Marc Hirschi and 18 ahead of Dylan Teuns .
Archie Ryan shone in his guest slot with the Jumbo-Visma WorldTour team, being one of the strongest of the chasers and netting sixth, 37 seconds behind Healy, and ahead of many established professionals. He is just 21 years of age and will turn pro next year with Healy’s EF Education EasyPost team. “We had two cards to play with me and Richard [team-mate Richard Carapaz],” Healy said. “Going long for me is my strength, and we could use Richard behind if I got caught back. I just had the legs today to make it stick, so Richard didn’t have to do anything.”
