just to add a bit more, the two that got away were almost joined by Tom on last lap but he couldnt quite get over and was caught by bunch. the leaders held 8-12seconds for the last 6km to finish(down hill)
with 2 laps to go tom, Wade, Mat and patrick were all in main bunch. Mat crashed, Pat popped and wade was last to go on last climb.
Alex rode like alex. whoosh .....boom!!!!
