Marlen Reusser (Switzerland) celebrated her birthday with individual time trial glory and a third win in a row at the European Road Championships, completing the 29.5km course in Emmen with a winning time of 35:53.
The Swiss time trial specialist achieved the hat-trick ahead of Anna Henderson (Great Britain) and Christina Schweinberger, who finished 43 and 44 seconds down respectively.
“It’s really, really special and nice to win it a third time. It makes me really happy and especially you know today is my birthday,” said Reusser.
“I think for my physics it’s good [the flat course], although at the moment I can also climb very well so it doesn’t really matter, what is in favour for me is that it isn’t maybe too technical.”
