Finland's Lotta Lepistö said that the fifth and final stage of the Aviva Women's Tour was hard but the work her team had done was pretty amazing after the Cervelo Bigla rider won after being in a break for most of the 113.2km stage.
"Today was pretty hard so I went with the break today because my team mate was second in the overall we had to go in the move and finally that move went and we had a pretty big gap and it stayed in the final," Lepistö said.
"I had all the time information in my ear from the manager and he said try to stay calm and sometimes I wasn't allowed to work and just wait for Ashley but in the last 2k it was really close for the peloton to catch us, so then I was confident that I could win the sprint if the break stays
"We worked together this tour, we are really small team but I think we have the biggest hearts the whole week. We started with five and we lost one rider during the week and now the stage win and the second on GC, I think it's pretty amazing.”
