Former world champion to lead USA team in Tour of New Zealand
Updated at 7:13 pm on 16 February 2010
The former world time trial champion, Amber Neben, will lead a strong United States national team in next week's Women's Cycle Tour of New Zealand.
She competed at the Beijing Olympics for the USA but mechanical problems ruined her efforts.
However, soon after that disappointment faded when she won the world time trial title.
The squad is expected to push the New Zealand team, Rochelle Gilmore's Lotto line-up, and the best of the Australian teams, along with teams from China, Japan, including the national squad, and Norway.
