I think the real answer was to give water out to the NZ riders as they missed the feed station or something.

That'll do it!!!!
Scott Gogeun attacked Graeme Miller and Brian Fowler just as they entered the feed so they had to chase and miss their bidons for a lap. It was about 35 degrees, so TV told people who live on the course to come out with their hoses to keep the local boys cool.
Can't trust those Canadians.....
Your turn.

This one is google-able, but it's not completely straight forwar.
What pro team did the winner of the 1995 Tour of Wellington ride for the following year?
BTW, In relation to the previous question, Brian Fowler just won the 100km and very hilly Le Race from Christchurch to Akaroa over the weekend. Not bad for an old fart eh?
