Just checked, and it's still on Hard! I'll of course turn it up to Extreme straight away. I apologise to everyone who got fooled  |

Brilliant start! Excellent job, really. I'm a bit shocked that you find the jerseys sexy, though  |

Very nice start Down Under. Must be a great feeling for Davis: sitting on the wheel of the NC champion and win the race
good luck in the next stages.

Well, that's not too bad. My first extreme race (and my only extreme race) was the worst race in the history of cycling |

Stage 4
Can Davis make it 3 wins in 3 sprint stages?
Meyer joins the BOTD and takes the points on the two climbs of the day.
He leaves the others behind on he final climb and pushes on.
With 3 km to go, he holds a gap of 25 seconds...
Come on.......
And he holds on! Behind him, Davis takes 2nd and Sully 3rd.
This is extremely easy
