No stopping Paul Magnier at Tour of Guangxi as he makes it three wins in a row on stage 3

Thursday’s hilly stage from Jingxi to Bama included 2,330m of elevation gain, with three categorised climbs peaking in the final 60km of the race, a category 2 topping out at 59km to go a category 3 with 41km remaining and finally another category 3 ascent at 20km to go before the downhill run toward the line.

There was no spoiling the sprint, however, with the attacks reeled in and while stage 2’s runner-up Pavel Bittner (Picnic PostNL) launched the sprint, Magnier once again finished it.

More to come …
