Congratulations to Alex Dowsett on his sprinter points win to don the green jersey in stage one of Tour of Gila. Alex and Ben King(US) rode an impressive day going off the front with 6 other riders in the very early stages of the race. They stayed away until the final few miles on the final 6.7 mile tortuous climb, but not without making a valiant effort. The entire U23 team rode incredible today and we look forward to stage two tomorrow an 80 mile road race. Below are some pics from the day.
