49th Herald Sun Tour - 2.4Australia, October 5-15, 2000Main page Results Previous stage John Lieswyn's Diary Stage 3 - October 6: Frankston - Wonthaggi, 107.3 kmHeirewegh slips the bunchStage three was a 107 kilometre leg from Frankston to Wonthaggi, and saw the riders on the open road fore the first time. It was set up for a fairly conventional finish, however a wrong turn by the majority of the peloton dramatically changed the outcome. Up until 15 kilometres to go, the stage was fairly calm, however on one of the climbs Belgian Bart Heirewegh (Foster's Lightice) established a 20 second gap. A noted Belgian kermesse specialist, Heirewegh powered away to win the race, adding to his two stage wins last year. Henk Vogels' Jayco team was driving the peloton to limit the damage caused by Heirewegh's attack, and kept it to 26 seconds by the finish. However, so intent was the team on making into town, they did not take a left turn when required. The result? Most of them lost valuable time to the Belgian and two others who had taken the corner. Fortunately for Vogels, he followed Josh Collingwood's wheel who knew the correct way to go. Collingwood, who had a minor fall during the morning's criterium, took second and Vogels third. This meant that the Yellow leader's jersey stayed on Vogels' broad shoulders for one more day, although Heirewegh moved quite close. Report courtesy of Rob Gaylard.
