With the race shortened to only 3 days, riders had extra fresh legs for today’s Sunset Loop stage. The pace shattered the field with only a select, 30-some group of riders surviving to the finishing circuits. Despite the aggressive riding, Health Net did excellent work keeping the attacks in check, and delivered O’Neill safely to the line in yellow. JJ Haedo made up for yesterday’s missed opportunity and took home the stage win for Toyota-United.

Full results coming.
