Australian Team Report

By Brian Stephens, AIS U23 Team Manager

The time trial started out of Sepino and finished in Sepino Terme above the town. The course was very tough, made harder by thunder storms moving across the course, making the descents treacherous. Davide Bragazzi from Podenzano won the stage with Dave McPartland running 31st and Ben Johnson running 40th.
