Moolman-Pasio skips South African time trial defense due to illness, Venter claims title

Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio was forced to skip the time trial at the South African Road Championships Wednesday due to illness. Cervelo Bigla Pro Cycling team made the announcement on Twitter.

Moolman-Pasio left the Cervelo Bigla Pro Cycling’s three-week training camp in Mallorca early so that she could compete in the time trial and road race at the Nationals on February 10 and 13 in Wartburg in KwaZulu-Natal.

Juanita Venter won the elite women’s 24km time trial title in 39:19 ahead of Samantha Sanders and Cashandra Slingerland.

“I decided not to use a disc wheel today and to rather use the 808 because of the climbs. I knew if I could make it up on the climbs and power up the last kilometre then I would have a chance at being on the podium,” Venter said after her victory.
