Stage Race

The cycling season awakens under a blistering southern sun, where the ochre jersey is forged in the furnace of the outback. It is a high-speed dance through wind-swept vineyards and up the punishing, spectator-lined slopes of Willunga Hill, where the peloton shakes off winter’s slumber with a visceral explosion of power and sweat.
