Benoît Joachim of the Astana team chose an unusual end of season event. For the last week, he switched his road bike with a mountain bike and participated in the Crocodile Trophy in Australia. The race in the desert was a big change for the Luxemburger, who is used to road racing in Europe, never far from any accommodations. He is part of the team that is currently leading, aptly named Dream Team.
