By David Hunter Jaén – Úbeda 178km A stage with many possible outcomes.

By David Hunter Sevilla – Iznajar 200km After the fun and excitement of the opening stage, this one should be a little easier for the peloton.

By David Hunter Glenelg – Victor Harbor 149.1km A stage you might remember.

By David Hunter Woodside – Stirling 135.8km We head to Stirling, a very popular stage in this race, although it did miss out in 2019. This is a finish which is well known to most, but the organisers do like to tinker with how many laps of the circuit we get.

By David Hunter Tanunda – Tanunda 150km We start with a sprint. The opening stage of the race features four laps of a 35km circuit.
