As a team rider, one has to be ready to aid your protected rider at all times. Here Mathew Hayman (Orica-GreenEdge) stops to give his man, Simon Gerrans, his back wheel in order to keep Gerrans in contention for the overall. With the wheel, Gerrans saved the time it would have taken for his team car to get up to him with the replacement for his punctured rear tire. Hayman then waited for the his mechanic and rode in with the follow caravan leaving Gerrans able to finish with the same time as the winner of the stage.
