Geelong Tour 2011

The fifth round of Australia's National Road Series, the second of the Scody Cup – the Geelong Tour is far from easy and kicks off with a 48km criterium on Wednesday, August 10. The 407 kilometre tour will also take in Lara, the You Yangs, Grovedale, Gnarwarre, Ceres and Anakie before ending in Geelong's Eastern Gardens on Sunday, August 14.

Headlining the six-stage race will be current NRS rankings leader Nathan Haas (Genesys) who holds a 190-point break on teammate Steele Von Hoff. Genesys come off dominant performances in the opening four events of the Series with Nathan Haas [Mersey Valley and Canberra], Pat Shaw [Toowoomba], and Von Hoff [Gippsland] getting the team's season off to the best possible start.
