Australian David McKenzie (Jayco) took out the first stage of the 50th Herald Sun Tour, a 31.5 kilometre criterium held around Melbourne's CBD. McKenzie, winner of the Melbourne-Warrnambool classic last Saturday, sprinted home in front of Canadian Eric Wohlberg (Australia Post), with Lithuanian Saulius Ruskys (Ballarat*Eureka!) heading a group of six riders home for third place. The main peloton finished at 9 seconds behind McKenzie.
Tomorrow's schedule will see two stages: a 30 lap criterium in Gembrook (11am start) followed by a 129.5 kilometre road stage from Gembrook to Morwell (1:30pm start).
