Lizzie Armitstead winning the World Road Championship in Richmond, Virginia earlier - a rainbow jersey to add to her Olympic silver medal. She joins an elite group (Beryl Burton, Mandy Jones and Nicole Cooke) of British women who have won this title.

 

Armitstead tried to jump away from the main group with 1km remaining but several riders caught her back wheel - but she had a final burst left for the sprint - awesome ride!
