Today was the third running of I Muri Fermani, the elite women's race promoted by Marina Romoli's father and (since her accident) raced in her honour. News seems to have been a bit thinner on the ground this year. There was no live video, and a lot fewer press releases. The best coverage seems to have come from Italian website amolabici.tv who filmed the video below at Saturday's team presentation wrote this report too, then gave a live web commentarywhich will give some idea of how the race developed.

The final result: Alena Amaliusik and Noemi Cantele got away on the final climb, then Amaliusik dropped Cantele and won solo by some 40 seconds. The battle for third came down to a bunch sprint which was won by Rossella Ratto (in perhaps her first race for her trade team Verinlegno - Fabiani). I hope that more video will turn up later this week.
