Australian Team Report

By Brian Stephens, AIS U23 manager

Today there was a split stage in the Baby Giro with an 80km tough circuit race in the morning and a 64km flat circuit race in the afternoon. Although they raced hard in both stages it did nothing to change the GC at the top end. The morning stage was over a twisty circuit with a tough hill in it. The Australians had a bit of drama when Scott Davis crashed in a big pile up at the half way mark. The team got him back on, then he immediately punctured but again the team helped him back to the bunch.

The field split with 15 km remaining but all the GC contenders where together in the group that came in at 47". The stage was won by Fabio Borghesi from San Paolo.
