Pance Down at Tour Down Under

So much for my New Year's Resolution to stay on top of  these race reports. Still we're only 2 Stages into the Tour Down Under, and due to the time difference, I think I'm actually ahead.

 If we cast our minds back to Stage 1, you may recall that Jack Bobridge took the win and the first leader's jersey, after he and some mates stayed away from the bunch.

Which was all good news for local boys the Rouleurs.

Stage 1


Stage 2 saw a win from one of the Bile Beans, with up-and-coming Spanish Sprinter and possible Hitler impersonator, Juan Jose Lobato. Meanwhile, the Bile Beans big money sprinter Marcel Kittel finished over 13 minutes down on the Stage - very disappointing.


But despite my success, taking the mostest points were Get Down and Under with a smattering of riders in the top ten. 

Stage 2


 So as we head into Stage 3, it's Bobridge still at the head of the GC and the Rouleurs still at the head of the league. There's a short, steep climb at the end of Stage 3 and we should see some of the overall contenders trying to put a few seconds into each other.
