Giorgia_Bronzini_wins_RideLondon_GP_YouTube_stillVideos: On-bike footage as Giorgia Bronzini wins on The Mall
Giorgia Bronzini’s victory in Saturday’s Prudential RideLondon Grand Prix meant two out of two for Wiggle Honda. The team's Laura Trott won last year's inaugural edition, and the Italian’s victory was caught on camera with a film crew following the team at the event as well as on-bike footage.
In the first video, the team plan is set out – attack, attack and attack to try and put under pressure the women who are the world’s top riders at the moment, Marianne Vos of Rabobank-Liv and Boels-Dolman’s Lizzie Armitstead.
Last time Vos and Armitstead sprinted on The Mall, it was the London 2012 Olympic Games with the Dutch woman triumphing over the Briton, and she followed that success by winning the past two World Championship road races.
This time round, Bronzini was in the mix too. She had beaten Vos to the rainbow jersey in both 2010 and 2011, and on Saturday got into her slipstream to pip her to victory – and in a nice touch is immediately congratulated by her rival. Here’s some extended on-bike footage.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

Starley Primal... Eileen Roe finished a super, duper fourth.
That is indeed a brilliant effort.
Forgive me, but I went to the team website and assumed that you're James Williams - I clicked on the name expecting a spotty 23-year-old weighing about 8 stone, sorry! Good luck with the last season!
Edit: just managed to watch the vid, how they manage to not touch wheels in that melee is beyond me! Awesome stuff.
"You came fourth? How disappointing to miss the podium, who was on it?"
"Oh, you know... Bronzini, Vos, Armitstead..."
Chapeau
Great stuff... great to see my team mates getting proper stuck in there as well.
Which team's yours?
