After the morning's shake up,
the riders tackled the afternoon 8.9 kilometer time trial along the shores
of Lake Talbingo. A beautiful course, slightly warmer but with a stiff
headwind on the way home. It was a chance for the GC to sort itself out
a little, before tomorrow's tough stage up to Cabramurra.
The Australian Institute of
Sport team have made time trialling their specialty over the years, and
it showed today. Third rider off, Margaret Hemsley (Bicisport, although
she does ride with the AIS), set the quickest early time at 13:04.03.
Soon after, AIS rider, Alison Wright came through with a 13:01.39, a time
which held for quite a while.
However, halfway down the field,
another AIS rider and also the current national time trial champion, Kristy
Scrymgeour, set a blazing time of 12:34.99, averaging over 42.437 km/h.
Even race favourite, Mari Holden (Timex USA) was unable to better this
(12:59.52), obviously feeling the effects from the morning's efforts.
Next best was Juanita Feldhahn (AIS) who set 12:43.97 - not good enough
to beat Scrymgeour, but quite sufficient to keep her in second place.
One by one, the riders started
and finished, and it came down to race leader Anna Wilson (Aus, Saturn)
and last year's winner Tracey Gaudry (Aus, Timex) to try and better Scrymgeour's
time. The wind was a little stronger at this point, but it was unlikely
to have made the difference as Gaudry posted 12:43.20 for second place,
and Wilson a 12:46.15 for fourth.
Kristy Scrymgeour, who had
crashed out of the race last year, was declared the winner, and was extremely
pleased against such formidable opposition: "I'm very happy with
this result...I just got my new time trial bike, and it felt very
fast. It's a nice course for me, fairly flat and a bit of wind. I was
really keen to do well in this race."
Tracey Gaudry was satisfied
with her second place, commenting that "I took things fairly conservatively
on the way out, not wanting to push too much for the run home. This is
really good for this time of year, and I'm aiming at the stages in the
next couple of days to make a move. We will see some aggressive racing
tomorrow."
Third placed Feldhahn described
the conditions as quite hard, because of the wind and uphill coming home:
"I thought I'd had an ordinary ride, but I think everyone found it
hard. The result was really pleasing considering," she said.
"I'm climbing strongly,
and am hoping for a top 10 finish tomorrow. As long as it's not raining
or snowing, then I'm happy," she laughed. There was no danger of
that today as the temperatures were once again around the 30 degree mark.
Anything can happen further up the mountains though, and tomorrow will
be one of the decisive stages for the field. The cyclists will tackle
110 kilometers from Khancoban to Cabramurra, Australia's highest settlement,
with two climbs en route, and a lot of uphill.
