Polands Zbigniew Piatek won the second stage of the day, the 96.5 km Maryborough to Daylesford leg. Peter Wrolich (Ballarat*eureka!) retained the yellow leaders jersey and will go into tomorrow's 120km Ballarat - Ballarat stage with a 3 minute 6 second lead over todays winner, Piatek.
Nathan Clarke (Foster's LightIce) leads the Emu Spirit Sprint Championship, with Eric Wohlberg (Australia Post) leading the East Gippsland Shire King Of The Mountain Championship, and Peter Dawson(Foster's LightIce) the Herald Sun Australian-based Rider Award.
During the stage a break containing both overall leader Peter Wrolich and third placed Zbigniew Piatek forced the pace. The break contain all 5 of Piatek's Echuca-Moama teammates giving him a cushioned run to the line. "Moama just had too many in the break," said Scott Sunderland. "It was a downhill sprint finish, and things really didn't go my way," he told Cyclingnews.
The stage was run at a fast pace, with Echuca-Moama trying to move up Piatek up the overall ladder, particularly as second placed Steve Williams (NSW Institute Of Sport) wasn't in the break.
