Huber gets one back on Brentjens

Swiss mountain biker Urs Huber took a glorious win in the Crocodile Trophy's Queen stage from Laura to Cooktown and in the process, further extended his race lead over Dutchman Bart Brentjens by 25 seconds. The performance from the World Marathon Championship bronze medallist oozed class, on a day when the physical and mental capabilities of every rider remaining in the race were tested to the limit over a hellish 140-kilometre journey.
