2013 Satalyst Tour of Margaret River - Stages 1-3 & 5

The Satalyst Tour of Margaret River is, without doubt, one of WA's top-shelf cycling events with this year's format attracting some of the big names of Australian cycling mixing in with teams at all levels (literally). Names that demand respect such as Phil Anderson, AJ Giacoppo, Jack Bobridge and Michael Freiberg took their places among amateur and sponsored teams attending four competitive stages around Cowaramup and down through rolling terrain to Augusta along the South West's famous Caves Road in the final stage. Personally, I would be riding in a lead role for the Hall Cycle Training Men's Team while Unicorn-Specialized, having lost the services of Craig Pennel for the event, had recruited a hard hitter to fill out the team.
