Australian Team Report

By Brian Stephens, AIS U23 manager

Today was the 25km time trial to decide the GC, with only a flat stage to follow. Scott Davis, not renowned as a time trialist put in a great effort to finish 10th on the stage. He moved in front of Quercioli on the GC but was passed by Spaniard, Albizu Lizaso from Cafe Baque and so retained 3rd place on the GC. Gene Bates also put in a good ride to run 20th on the stage and retain his 17th overall. The stage was won by Russian, Dmitri Semov.
