By David Hunter La Toma – Merlo 159.5km For the first time in a while, we are left with a very exciting finish to the Tour de San Luis. By this point, the GC is usually crucially shaped and this stage is the icing on the cake. Not in 2016! Thanks to the TTT and the…
By David Hunter McLaren Vale – Willunga Hill 151.5km It’s D-Day in Australia. Easily one of the best stages in the whole year, we return to Willunga Hill.

By David Hunter Glenelg – Campbelltown 139km After a familiar ride around Stirling, the race returns to Corkscrew Road. This is a stage that will shape the GC.
By David Hunter Potrero de los Funes – La Punta 131km Well, stage 2 turned out to be a surprise! Etixx their the toys out the pram when no one would help. The break almost had their day, but were caught on the final straight. They might get lucky in stage 3!
By David Hunter Unley – Stirling 132km Stage 2 and we are back in Stirling. This stage is as much of a favourite as Willunga Hill. Each year the organisers decide how many laps we’ll get of the circuit. Sometimes they keep it low, last year we only had two laps. In other years, they make…
