Lucinda Stewart sweeps up elite and U23 titles at combined Australian Championships road race
Briefly

"I don't know what to say. I just feel so much pride in these [Liv AlUla Jayco] colours. I look up to these girls, my teammates so much and have so much respect for them and I knew how strong they are and to be the only one in the break for my team I knew I had to pull it off and there was no other option. I'm so happy," a breathless Stewart said in the post race interview on broadcaster SBS after being heartily congratulated by WorldTour teammate Amber Pate.
"The last time a rider swept up both titles in the combined race was when Sarah Gigante took the win in 2020 in her first year out of the junior ranks in Buninyong."
"The riders faced eight laps of a 13.6km loop, with 193m of elevation gain per lap, highlighting the physical challenge that Stewart successfully navigated to achieve her titles."
