Vennell in Yellow Jersey
Press Release (For immediate release) October 31, 2011 Vennell in yellow jersey Dominating the sprint finish in stage one of the 2011 PowerNet Tour of Southland saw Ascot Park Hotel’s Clinton Avery avenge a “one inch loss” he suffered last year. After enduring 160km of energy-sapping crosswinds, the Rotorua rider held off a strong challenge from the chasing group to claim the win in Lumsden. “Long, hard, miserable – that pretty much sums up that stage,” he said. “Once we got in those valleys, it started to channel the wind a bit more so we had to toughen up a little bit. “I got second here last year by about one inch to (Hayden) Roulston so it’s nice.” Motivated by Tour veteran Gordon McCauley, of Barry Stewart Builders-GMC, an early breakaway group of nine riders was left to its own devices and managed to rack up a lead of nearly 8 minutes by the halfway mark. After remaining largely unreactive for the majority of the stage, the peloton dug deep and successfully reeled them in with just over 20km remaining, prompting a final group of six to strike out for the finish line. “It started to come back pretty quickly when we stepped on the gas,” Avery said. Calder Stewart’s Jeremy Vennell was thrust into yellow with the powerful team content to share the coveted jersey amongst its ranks. “It’s a really nice surprise. I wasn’t expecting to be in yellow after today … I was just lucky enough to get in the move at the finish,” Vennell said. -
