World Cup?
[edit]Having delved into the UCI's pitiful archive, which gives details from 1998, and finding information from cyclingnews for 1996-7, I can't find any reference to this race as a World Cup race The cyclingnews 1997 UCI calender marks it as a 1.1 category race - the highest after World Cup in those days.
