Good News: Women's Prestige Cycling Series

At a time when women's races are being canceled right and left, here comes some good news for female pros here in the U.S. The Women's Prestige Cycling Series will continue (for a seventh year) and it features four stage races for 2010.

VeloNews has the scoop. And former Team Type 1 rider Alison Powers (now with Team Vera Bradley Foundation) tells cyclingnews.com she is making the WPCS one of her targets this year (the other is the National Racing Calendar series that she also won in 2009).

Here's the official release (quoting the Peanut Butter & Co.TWENTY12 and TREADS.COM/DFT managers).

Which is very good.

Cuz we both wanted a story on this, but neither of us got around to writing it.
