Race Results
Santos North Western Tour - Men (2012) - Stage 5
via National Road Series Press Release
The fifth and final stage for the men was neutralised with changed race conditions meaning the stage was raced as an exhibtion, with results from the stage not counting towards final standings.
One rider from each team contested the stage from Gunnedah to Tamworth, with Joe Lewis (RBS Morgans-ATS Pro Cycling) crossing the line first ahead of Josh Taylor (GPM Wilson Racing) and Jeremy Scott (Skoda St George NRS Team).
Budget Forklifts’ Mark O’Brien, the Tour leader heading into the final stage, claimed the Santos North Western Tour GC winner’s jersey. O’Brien had a 35-second gap on RBS Morgans-ATS Pro Cycling’s Benjamin Hill, with Jai Crawford (Genesys-Wealth) claiming third.
