Brady Gilmore didn't let the rest day at the ten stage Volta a Portugal interrupt his run, making it back-to-back victories in after Wednesday's efforts in Guarda.
The 24-year-old Israel Premier Tech Academy rider took his first victory of the UCI 2.1 ranked race on Monday's stage 5, recovering from the heat of the earlier days in the race – which also faced a neutralisation as a result of a fire on stage 4 – to take a clear cut win from the bunch. He launched from his team lead-out at 200m to go in the finale of the sprinter's stage but it was a different scenario on Wednesday.
