CycleTourMediaOffice Posted November 24, 2012 Share Latest update from the route is that Team NuWater has passed fellow contenders Team Focus / Craft after 40kms and are currently 3 minutes ahead. Rain has started falling so it's going to be a challenging 202kms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CycleTourMediaOffice Posted November 24, 2012 Share Most teams have left Ashton neutral zone and are heading toward finish line. So far, team NuWater have the lead (men's) and Vodacom Ladies are setting the pace for the ladies. While rain has stopped, the wind has picked up and there is a strong headwind on the road from Ashton to Robertson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
