Max Gawn sits down with Santos Tour Down Under race director Stuart O’Grady to go through the 2027 route, stage by stage, the morning after Max and Ed Langdon Everested Willunga Hill.

They talk leaving Willunga out of his first race as director. O'Grady explains how the men’s and women’s races will run on the same day, on the same course, for the first time in the Australian summer.

In this episode:

  • Max’s Everest numbers: 8,911 metres, 13,000 calories and 21 hours in the saddle
  • A short, steep climb three times in the final of stage one from Henley Beach
  • Corkscrew twice on stage three, now turning right like the women did this year
  • Willunga Hill from a new direction, and a Norwood to Stirling finale
  • How points farming has changed the TDU, and Max on Jayco’s Australian identity
  • The 2028 route Stewie’s already designed, and whether Pogačar is coming
