South Australian Jack Bobridge (Team AIS) has claimed victory in the U23 Eschborn-Frankfurt City Loop race in Germany. Bobridge completed the 140 kilometre event in a time of 3:30:57, outclassing Austrian National Team pair Daniel Schorn and Matthias Brandle in a sprint across the line.

The trio managed to hold off the chasing bunch to contest the finish.

Bobridge's team mates Adam Semple and Michael Matthews finished in 11th and 12th places respectively coming home with the main bunch at 30 seconds.

The win continues a run of impressive results from Bobridge which have included gold medals on the road in both the time trial and road race in the U23 division at the Australian Open Championships in January whilst on the track in the individual and team pursuit events the 19 year old claimed Oceania titles, Australian titles and silver medals at the World Championships.
