Josh Atkins asserts his dominance on queen stage to Crown Range
Youngster swaps pink for yellow as Roulston abandons
Stage 5 of the Tour of Southland was the most eventful yet as three U23 competitors took control of the race and defending champion Hayden Roulston was forced to withdraw early on with a kidney infection.
Roulston, who was chasing his fifth win in the race, was joined on the sidelines by Brad Carter, Paul Whitley, Ian Smallman and Courtney Black who all withdrew from the Tour on a day of high drama in the 179-kilometre stage that stretched from Te Anau to Queenstown's Crown Range. Icy cold conditions were made worse by heavy rain and high winds, which made things difficult for the riders.
Amid the wreckage local boy Josh Atkins took control of the race with 10km to go, pulling clear of the breakaway group to claim the stage win and take over the yellow jersey. It was the first ever Southland stage win for the 19-year-old's PowerNet team and he crossed the line 29 seconds clear of fellow youngsters Patrick Bevin (Ascot Park Hotel) and Jeremy Yates (Share The Road).
Bevin now lies in second place, 1:09 behind Atkins in the general classification. George Bennett (Kia Motors) holds third overall, 1:25 behind Atkins.
Riders now move on to the 167km stage 6, from Invercargill to Gore, on Friday morning.
