Britain’s Lizzie Deignan says she is “surprised” to be in contention after remaining second overall following stage two of the RideLondon Classique.<\/span><\/p>\n

Deignan is one month into her return after giving birth to a second child.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The 34-year-old was due to support Elisa Balsamo but her Trek-Segafredo team-mate crashed in Friday’s stage.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Racing here is very dynamic, you expect the unexpected,” said Deignan, after finishing second in Maldon in a sprint finish with USA’s Chloe Dygert.<\/span><\/p>\n

“But it is still a surprise [to be second overall].”<\/span><\/p>\n

Dygert, who is third overall, beat Deignan in a reduced uphill sprint to the line after a frantic end to stage two of the race, which ends in London on Sunday.<\/span><\/p>\n

The American Canyon-SRAM rider stayed in the wheels of Deignan for the final 10km after her team-mate, Maike van der Duin of the Netherlands, had gone solo off the front.<\/span><\/p>\n

Van der Duin was only caught inside the final few hundred metres after a crash, which left Friday’s stage winner and overall leader Charlotte Kool on the ground, disrupted the chase.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dygert was led out by another team-mate, Italy’s Soraya Paladin, who finished third, to claim a first WorldTour win on the road. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kool retained a five-second lead over Deignan as her crash came inside the final three kilometres so she did not lose any time.<\/span><\/p>\n
