ABOUT Health Partners Men's Stage 3

It’s fast, it’s furious. Get set for an efex King of the Mountain climb less than five minutes into racing, followed by a mix of terrain sure to test the peloton.

The 145.3-kilometre Health Partners Men’s Stage 3 starts in Tea Tree Gully and travels into the Barossa before heading back towards Adelaide. Relatively modest ascents will be welcomed by sprinters, while general classification hopefuls may target this stage to secure crucial seconds over their rivals. A sharp descent down Gorge Road at Paracombe sets up a thrilling finish.
