The fifth edition of the Women’s Santos Tour Down Under saw the race step up to the new 2.Pro category. With that came the addition of livestreaming, greater visibility for the race, bigger crowds and an impressively strong international line-up. The lack of a big uphill finish also ensured interesting, dynamic racing.

Photographer Tim Bardsley-Smith was on the ground in Adelaide to capture all the action. See the gallery below to see how four great days of racing unfolded. And follow the links below for more from the race:
