TDU: Third time lucky

 

Vernon about to make history for NSN Cycling Team.


It was third time lucky for Ethan Vernon. After two attempts that didn’t go to plan, cancellation of Willunga Hill, stage 4 was for the sprinters and Vernon took an emphatic win in Willunga. It marked the first victory of the season for the new NSN Cycling Team after coming close in the prologue where Vernon missed the win by half a second. 

“To be the first rider to win in this jersey is really special. We’ve got some new sponsors and I wanted to do those guys proud. I think when you win in Australia, it builds momentum for the whole team. Most of out guy are on training camp now, but winning here helps build momentum for them too. Hopefully they start the season in Europe strong as well.”
