Tour of Tasmania Stage 3 SBS Women's League Recap
An aggressive start out of Longford saw a number of riders from the ARA Skip Capital and NSTRMO X Attaquer X CCACHE teams looking to gain a head start before the ascent up Poatina. They were unable to escape the stranglehold that Team Redcat held over the peloton who were controlling affairs for race leader Sophia Sammons.
Kirsty Watts (Merdian BikeBug) took out the first of the intermediate sprints, before a nasty crash saw a big group of riders go down and the race neutralised. Following an assessment of the riders and support available the unfortunate decision was made to cancel the stage.
It was a disappointing outcome for many riders, we hope they have opportunities to showcase their talents in the future.
The tour continues tomorrow with the stage 4 criterium.
