Urs Huber successfully defended his title at the Crocodile Trophy after extending his overall margin on the final stage time trial in Queensland on Thursday. The Swiss rider had held a commanding lead going into the 38 kilometre test but showed his class to add a further 30 seconds over Bart Brentjens, who took second on the stage and in the race.
The symmetry of the final stage wasn’t to be broken by the third-placed rider. Belgian Mike Mulkens finished behind Huber and Brentjens on the stage, but also sealed the same position on the final podium.
Allan Oras and Cory Wallace rounded out the top-five.
Jaan Kirsipuu claimed victory in the Masters 2 Category, while Christof Mariën won the Masters 1 competition. Hans Dielacher took out Masters 3.
Abby McLennan saw off the challenge of the final time trial to seal her victory in the women’s category.
Klaus Sever ensured Austria were represented on the top step of a podium with victory in the E-Bike category.
