did you read about jimena florit's retirement? read on cyclingnews.com.she
is a great ambassador for cycling.

I think that most of the elite climbers are at the end of their rope too.
Joane S. is rumored to retire every year and Luperini isn't far behind. LZ
is gone and I think Brandli might bail out soon. Also what about Longo? How
long can she continue? Got to admire her spirit! Dede is gone, and how long
will Bessette continue? I think so many of the top girls will be gone soon.
End of an era. Add Rossner to the list as well.
