Havana, September 29 (RHC) - Cuban cycling star Arlenis Sierra will return to the roads this Saturday with his club, Movistar Team, when he takes part in the Giro dell'Emilia, in Italy.

Sierra, who last weekend regained the Cuban titles on the road, was announced by Movistar for this Saturday's 103.5 km race along with Germany's Liane Lippert, Colombia's Paula Patiño, Serbia's Jelena Eric and Spain's Sara Martin.

To celebrate its tenth edition, the Giro dell'Emilia adds a second ascent to the Sanctuary of San Luca in Bologna, the traditional finish of the race other years but which was faced without previous altimetric hardness.

The best cyclist of the American continent rejoined Movistar in Spain last Wednesday, after several days in Havana, where she regained the titles (time trial and road) in the national championship, which she could not keep in 2022 because she could not attend.

In the road race, Sierra was ahead of her teammates Claudia Baró and Daymelín Pérez.

The famed Spanish club celebrated on its official website and social networks the most recent performance of Arlenis, who is at ease in the Spanish club, with which she renewed a few days ago until 2026.

"Double title for Arlenis Sierra in the National Championships of Cuba, held last weekend in Havana and the Guayaba circuit (in Havana)," praised Movistar.

It specified that its stellar cyclist thus recovered the two "time trial and road jerseys and takes us to 39 successes in 2023, 21 for the women's jersey".

In the Giro dell'Emilia will compete more than a hundred of the best women road cyclists in the world distributed in 20 clubs, including Trek-Segafredo led by Italian Elisa Longo, winner of the last edition in 2022.

After competing in the Italian race, with category one of the International Cycling Union, Arlenis Sierra will be on October 3 in the Tres Valles race, also in Italy, and then she will return to Cuba to travel to Chile to defend her title in the Pan American Games.
