Burnsy flying into Te Anau today!
Super fast stage today, 159km and over Blackmount climb where Luke put in his big attack to split the break up. Then joined by 3 others to push on to the finish for 4th place on the stage, 4th GC and taken valuable time on GC rivals.
Oli and Glenn up the front in the start getting into a few breaks before the big one went.
Bring on the rest of the week!

Glenn the goat! 🐐
What a day out in the break to Gore, taking the KOM, Silver and most aggressive jerseys all in the one day. His 6th year riding for Couplands and he ages like a fine wine.

New Zealand has a new Hour Record!
Glenn rode 52.784 km in one hour on the velodrome, the furthest distance ever recorded by a New Zealander in the Hour.
The Hour Record is cycling’s purest test, no drafting, no rest, just sustained power, aerodynamics and flawless pacing for 60 minutes. This performance places Glenn in elite international territory and well beyond any Masters benchmark.
A world-class ride.
