Not that bold imo.greenedge said:I will go with someone from the Aussie team to win. Then Atkins and someone from a continental team, probably Lapthorne.
Bold predictions.
Howson to win the prologue.
Phelan and Norris to do good rides.
Should actually be a couple of degrees cooler over most of the route, as it's at about 500 metres altitude compared to Melbourne.Wilba60 said:Just keeps getting worse for the riders. 41C and headwind ALL the way. The only bonus is that it should be a few degrees cooler over Mount Macedon. Day from hell coming up!!
Friday 4 January
SummaryMin 23Max 41Dry. Windy. Late cool change.
Melbourne area
Sunny. Winds northerly 35 to 50 km/h with stronger squalls. A cooler southwest to southerly change 25 to 35 km/h at night.
Once they get over Mt Macedon (End of the Great Dividing Range), they'll feel like they've cycled into an oven. Will be a hot northerly blowing in their faces all the way to Bendigo. Undulating terrain all the way through Redesdale and Lake Eppalock. Last little pinch up One Tree Hill will test a few tired / hot legs.rgmerk said:Should actually be a couple of degrees cooler over most of the route, as it's at about 500 metres altitude compared to Melbourne.
Still going to be a hot one.
Never heard of the guy, but congrats to him.Grzdylu said:Jordan Kerby wins JaycoHeraldSunTour prologue.
Good to see. He's a good young rider now at CWO after the Eclipse fallout. Know about his efforts in the short TTs (may have won in Thailand), and impressed much in one of the stages in HA Azerbaijan tour before being eaten up in the final metres. He and his team mate Mitch Lovelock Fay will be ones to look out for in CWO. Should do well in races like the Tour of China which CWO controlled after a TTT. Think even Honey Shotz (Australia) were decent in the race.Grzdylu said:Jordan Kerby wins JaycoHeraldSunTour prologue.
Partially to do with money and the calendar adjustments I think. At least this way, it flows well with the rest of the races in the Australian Summer. I do agree that it is a shame that the Sun Tour has been shortened.movingtarget said:What have they done to the Sun Tour ? It's half the race it used to be. Shorter stages and less stages. I suppose it's all about TV coverage or some such.
Mostly to do with UCI/TDU intransigence.auscyclefan94 said:Partially to do with money and the calendar adjustments I think.
