Photo Team An Post Chainreaction
La 6ème étape de la An Post Ras en Irlande a été remporté par le néo Zélandais Aaron Gate (An Post Chainreaction). Au terme des 159 km a Dungarvan, il devance au sprint le Néerlandais Nicolai Brochner (Riwal Plateform) et le Britannique Matt Holmes (Madison Genesis).
Clémens Frankhauser (Tyrol Cycling Team) conserve son maillot de leader
Une étape marquée par plusieurs attaques comme celle d’Eddie Dunbar pris en chasse par Oliver Maxwell (Neon Velo) et Mark Dowling (ASEA-Wheelworx) dans un premier temps puis par le Néo Zélandais Kennett et et l’Irlandais Daire Feeley; Ces 2 derniers vont réussir à rejoindre Dunbar et vont compter 3 min d’avance sur le peloton à 65 km du finish.
Mais derrière, les choses sérieuses ont commencé et la chasse a été vite mené par Aaron Gate et le maillot jaune Clémens Frankhauser. Ils sont 9 dans ce groupe de poursuite avec Jai Hindley (Australie), Josh Edmondson (NFTO), Matt Holmes (Madison Genesis), James Gullen (Pedal Heaven), Elliott Porter (Neon Velo ), Troels Ronning Vinther (Plateforme Riwal) et Regan Gough (Nouvelle-Zélande). Ils vont reprendre le trio en moins de 20 km Dès lors le peloton parvient a rejoindre le groupe et c’est vers un sprint massif que l’on se dirige.
Et c’est Aaron Gate qui sera le plus rapide devant Nicolai Brochner.
