| Stage 3
Quite a hilly circuit round ngaroa near castle rock, like 600m vertical gain each lap. legs feeling pretty tired from yesterdays stage but got going well. sat up in the front portion of bunch for first 40km then punctured, so annoying! Got motorpaced back on but the bunch was going hard to catch break so took almost 10mins. Also the cassette on the wheel from the wheel wagn. wasnt working with my chain was tired as when i caught up, then got tangled in a little crash before first hill on second lap. Chased back on, then was slow getting my food at the feed zone and couldnt chase back on. Cracked on the main climb before i could chase on. Myron and tom scully sat up so i cruised the last 45km with them and tom pierce and andrew mcd. Legs felt smashed afterwards. Still pleased with my ride though over the weekend considering minimal training |

| Awesome day of riding. A reso flat course with mainly power climbs. Legs feeling good after tt yesterday. Attacked after about 30km, got off the front. horsey, josh, andrew and a couple of other guys got across and we set up a good bunch, all rolling through well. caught the early break at like 50km, dropped two of them but george held on. Stayed out until bout 15km to go when all the big boys caught us. crackd a bit on the climb before they caught. tried to hold on but they wer going for sprint ace points so i dropped, stayed in the middle with andrew and jordan. made it to about 4km to go before the next 6 caught me. stayed with them to the line and ended up 17th on the stage. stoked as with my ride. felt really strong for about 100km. |
