2012 Santos Tour Down Under LogoTour Down Under; Jay McCarthy takes Stage 2 and race lead (+ video highlights)
Tinkoff’s Jay McCarthy has taken the overall lead at the Santos Tour Down Under after narrowly beating Lampre’s Diego Ulissi in a sprint to the line in Stirling.
Race favourite Simon Gerrans of Orica-GreenEdge and Sky’s Geraint Thomas were among riders who fell in a crash with around a kilometre remaining of the 132 kilometre stage from Unley.
All those involved remounted, and with the incident happening inside the closing three kilometres, none lost time in accordance with UCI rules.
Tomorrow’s Stage 3 from Glenelg to Campbelltown includes the ascent of Corkscrew Road.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

Indeed. While it makes sense to start with the professionals, I agree the older cyclist could be where the sales volume lies in the long term....

Same for me. Parked cars blocking the oncoming lane. Didn't stop a drivist gunning towards me. I held my ground as he kept shouting for me to...
