I rode with a very good Cat 2 woman last year, and she was riding as strong as the strong Cat 2 men on that ride. She was by far the fastest female cyclist I've ever ridden with, faster than some pro women I've seen. A really strong world class female pro would pwn 95%+ of amateur male racers. That being said, a strong Cat 2 amateur man can pwn 95% of amateur male racers too, so flip a coin on that one. Whether L. Hatch meets that criteria, I don't know. But she's not hard to look at.
