Chapman's consistent riding earned her fifth place in the General Classification.

Just a little behind the two lead riders, the next small group to cross the line included @Brodie_Mai who took 5th on the tough second stage of #AmgenTOCWomen. Find out more about talented Aussie rider Brodie Chapman and her meteoric rise to #WWT racing: https://t.co/KlNodZXOzu
