Despite a strong challenge from McLachlan, who won four stages, Sulzberger sizzled claiming three stage wins, three seconds and one third to dominate the podium. Sulzberger's stage wins included the 80.7km stage from Latrobe which finished in his hometown of Beaconsfield. He also sprinted to victory in the penultimate stage a 91.9km race from George Town to Scottsdale and wrapped it up with a win in the final criterium stage in Launceston.

His SouthAustralia.com-AIS team mate Sean Finning, 21, was also in the action claiming victory on the 45km Latrobe stage.
Sulzberger will now enjoy a well earned month's break before resuming training while Finning will head to Adelaide in two weeks time for a national camp ahead of the opening round of the UCI Track World Cup Series in Sydney.
