Saturday, September 19, 2009 Wild to skip worlds TT by VeloNation Press at 5:59 PM EST   comments Categories: Pro Cycling, World Championships   Kirsten Wild has decided not to contest the world time trial championships next week in Mendrisio, Switzerland. The time trial specialist was sick earlier this week and feels she hasn't recovered enough to put in a good performance in the race against the clock. Coach for the Netherlands, Johan Lammerts, has opted not to replace Wild on the worlds team. This leaves national time trial champion Regina Bruins and European champion Ellen van Dijk with a chance for the rainbow jersey.       comments Follow @Pro_Cycling Tweet Subscribe via RSS or daily email Contact the editor about this article Related Articles Kirsten Wild diagnosed with fractured shoulder after Omloop van Borsele crash Wild keeps stunning momentum going in Energiewacht Tour, takes fourth stage win Women's World Cup: Ronde van Vlaanderen preview Degenkolb optimistic he can play a role in finale of Tour of Flanders Ladies’ Tour of Qatar: Kirsten Wild confirms overall win with final stage victory Ladies’ Tour of Qatar: Kirsten Wild powers into the lead on stage three Ladies’ Tour of Qatar: Kirsten Wild sprints to stage three as Orica-AIS goes on the attack
