There are no shortage of tales of riders being broken by a challenging mountain climb, but on Sunday it felt more like Luke Plapp (Ineos Grenadiers) and Sarah Gigante (Movistar) broke the mountain.
Records crumbled on Australia's Mount Buffalo under the unrelenting pressure of the duo, with Gigante and Plapp claiming the final stage of the Bright Brewery Tour of Bright as well as final overall victory at the event in Victoria's High Country.
