Peak Performance
Points Race - Queen Stage (double points)
47km long, 730m elevation.
Breakaway riders can get away through the rolling Titans Grove, though they are likely to be chased back on the fast coastal roads. Non-sprinters should watch (or try) for a breakaway on a counter-attack after one of the sprint segments. The peloton will fall apart on The Grade. Pace yourself well because there is still 20km of riding after cresting the top. This one finishes in an odd location after passing through Downtown Watopia. Long-range finishing efforts will start on the small uphill coming out of Downtown Watopia.
