The BikeGearNow.com Junior Tour was held over the weekend, with 120 young riders enjoying some great racing.

Saturday’s racing was held at the predominantly flat Casey Fields criterium circuit with two stages contested – an ITT in the morning, and road races in the afternoon. The U11’s also completed their Stage 3 road race. Early conditions were chilly thanks to the heavy morning frost but that eventually cleared to reveal a sunny day with little to no wind.

Sunday was based at Main Ridge along the peninsula, with road races conducted on an undulating 12.6km circuit. The conditions were certainly much tougher than those encountered on Day 1, and produced some significant time gaps across all age groups.
