Jay Vine won stage four of the Vuelta a Burgos on Thursday afternoon, four months after suffering three spinal fractures after being caught up in the Itzulia Basque Country horror crash in the spring.
The Australian won the 18.5km individual time trial at the Spanish stage race, often used as a warm up for the fast approaching Vuelta a España. Vine’s time of 19:51 was enough to secure the win before the race’s final stage on Friday.
