McGee wins again, Osa takes final GC

Australian rider Bradley McGee (La Française des Jeux) took his second stage win in the tenth and final stage of the 36th Tour de l'Avenir, finishing 14th overall to overall race winner Spain's Unai Osa (Banesto). The race was dominated by Spaniards, with four of the top six positions places in the overal going to young Spanish riders, with Banesto team-mate David Latas in second and and American Floyd Landis (Mercury) in third overall. Austrian Gerhard Trampusch finished fourth and retained the green points jersey, while the Belgian Steve Vermaut (Vlaanderen 2002) was the race's best climber. The last Spanish winner of the Tour de l'Avenir, for riders under 25, was David Etxebarria, who won two stages during the 1999 Tour de France.
