Santos Tour Down Under - Men's Stage 3

New year, new climb. Meet Knott’s Hill on Pound Road near Ashton, a fresh challenge for the world’s best. It features on an unrelenting stage that also offers an array of classic elements. Riders will begin in Norwood and head for the slopes of Norton Summit, then push further into the Adelaide Hills and towards the Uraidla finish. The journey there is anything but cruisy, with two big climbs, tight turns and a rollercoaster last approach in the mix. There are few certainties in bike racing, and none when the stage’s biggest challenge is making its debut.
