Jayco Herald Sun Tour Stage 5

October 17, 2011

Photography:

The Genesys Pro Cycling Team have been punching above their weight every since they started as Praities, and this is by far their biggest win to date. I have no doubt Nathan Haas and Steel Von Hoff will follow in the same footsteps as Richie Porte (SaxoBank, now SKY) and Will Clarke (Leopard-Trek) if they want to. Their record is absolutely incredible.

As they say on their website:

1st GC, tick.
1st Best Young Rider, tick.
1st Sprint Jersey, tick.
1st Teams Classification, tick.
A Podium Finish on every stage, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick.
Gained plenty of experience? tick.
Earned a lot of respect? tick.
Had a brilliant time? tick.

You can’t argue with that. Congratulations guys. You’ve worked hard for it and deserve this.
