Stage 5 Time Trial- Yah man, Cool runnings and da' bob sled

Stage 5 time trail was a novelty to both of us, a shorter day but plenty of climbing and hard, technical terrain. 

We got off to a banger of a start, rolling along nicely at a comfortable pace, knowing how hard the rest of the stage will be. Once we hit the plantation climb, we settled down and got down to business, holding a good pace, up over the climb to the waterpoint. Rolling straight through and heading down towards the heavy handed 7 peaks singletrack climb which would lead us into utopia. 

Cool runnings and cool runnings too, two incredible sections of singletrack, carved into the mountain side, littered with rocks, amazing bridges and some loose berms to keep you on your toes! 

Once we finished the descent, we hooked it with two of the Ironman athletes into the finish.

We bagged 57th overall on the GC and are now lying 75th overall.
