Peter Kennaugh (Sky) took his first major stage race win on Sunday, winning the Settimana Coppi e Bartali in Italy.

Kennaugh went into the final time trial stage with a relatively comfortable 42-second lead over second-placed Manuel Bongiorno (Bardiani-CSF). Although Kennaugh completed the final stage out of the top 10, he had enough of a cushion to clinch the overall win.

Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
