Drama on the streets of Launceston as final stage flips the script.

SBS Women's League

Heading into the final stage criterium on the streets of Launceston, the big news story was the attendance of overall race leader Sophia Sammons who, after multiple medical assessments both yesterday and this morning, was cleared to race the final stage.

Sammons arrived at the start line heavily bandaged, but after being cleared of a head injury she was intent on defending her lead while looking to win her first overall title at this level.

The weather was threatening throughout, some rain falling in the middle of the race, but with the wind picking up the course more or less dried out for the finale.

An aggressive race throughout saw a number of the Top 10 in GC fall down the standings after losing contact with the peloton and being pulled from the race on the circuit around City Park in Launceston.

With the group all together into the finish, all eyes were on pre-race favourite Keely Bennett from Butterfields Ziptrak Racing to deliver in the bunch sprint. Rounding the final corner, Bennett looked set to take out the final stage before young Ruby Taylor from Team Redcat stormed through the centre to take a thrilling stage win.

Taylor capped off an excellent weeks racing, top and tailing the Tour of Tasmania, while her teammate Sophia Sammons rode a calm and measured race to finish in the main field, sealing her maiden GC win at the national level and stamping her authority on the 2026 Hertz Pro Velo Super League

Let's Go Motorhomes Men's

The men's race saw an action packed race from the gun as Oliver Bleddyn and his Brennan team mates sought to control the front of the field to set up the overall win.

Coming into the stage Bleddyn led Falcons Pedal Mafia rider Connor Wright by 19 seconds. With Wright unable to overtake Bleddyn on bonus seconds alone and Bleddyn's Brennan team-mates carefully controlling the opening laps the overall title appeared to be a straightforward affair.

That all changed when 6 riders stepped off the front, quickly establishing a handy lead, while Brennan was attentive in marking the riders bridging across. It was at this moment that the race took a turn, with 5th placed Levi Hone for team Brennan marking a move that went all the way up to the front of the race. While the bunch scrambled and the breakaway set-to-to work, the gap blew out to 40 seconds, putting Hone into the virtual GC on the road over his team-mate Bleddyn.

As they came into the final lap, Brennan's Pat Eddy attacked on the final lap, almost managing to stay away before Tasmania local Reuben Page-Brown closed the gap down into the final corner, railing the final right hander in the rain and sprinting to his first Hertz Pro Velo Super League win.

With the time bonus for 3rd on the stage and the advantage over the main field, Echuca's Levi Hone stepped into the race lead at the last possible moment, winning his first PSL overall title ahead of his team mate, olympic gold medallist Oliver Bleddyn.
