Is There Enough Road? TDU19-24
Richie Porte (Trek-Segafredo) has been dubbed the King of Willunga Hill, having one this climb the last five years running. As he went under the flame rouge, the final kilometer of the race, he check to see how much of a gap he had opened up on his main rivals. If he could win the stage by nine seconds over Daryl Impey (Mitchelton-Scott), he would win the 2019 Tour Down Under. While he could only see Wout Poels (Team Sky) and Michael Woods (EF Education First) behind him, the question remained, did he have enough road left to get the kind of gap he needed on the South African Champion.
