Tour Down Under 2024 Route stage 2: Norwood - Lobethal
Wednesday 17 January - The 2nd stage of the Tour Down Under is a hilly race of 141.6 kilometres long. The riders are to conquer 2,848 metres of climbing. The punchy Fox Creek climb is situated inside the last 10 kilometres.
The route climbs from the start to Ashton. The 10 kilometres long ascent slopes at 5% and after moving through the town west of Adelaide the route continues on undulating terrain.
The race comes down to three passes of a 35 kilometres loop that encompasses Kenton Valley, Gumeracha and Cudlee Creek. Each time, the punchy climb on Fox Creek Road throws in 1.6 kilometre at 8.8% and ramps up to 18%. The last passage at the top happens with 8 kilometres to go before a rolling section leads to a 2 kilometres descent and the last 1.5 kilometres on the flat.
Two intermediate sprints come with 3, 2 and 1 seconds each, while the first three riders on the line take time bonuses of 10, 6 and 4 seconds.
