Redlands Bicycle Classic Stage 5

19 April 2023

Development Team General Manager Daniel Holt:

“The strategy was simple: aim for a good position leading up to the challenging 11km loop and then try to hold on for as long as possible. The loop consisted of a 6km climb, 2km of flat terrain, and a 3km technical downhill section.

Antonio did a great job staying with the main group for two laps, but unfortunately, he got a flat tire.

Quinten and Nathan got dropped on the first climb. They chased alongside several other riders for as long as they could until they had to stop. It’s admirable that they didn’t give up and kept fighting until the end. Overall, this week was a valuable learning experience for everyone.”
