Peter Kennaugh swapped his British champion's jersey for the yellow and blue Herald Sun Tour leader's top.
British road race national champion Peter Kennaugh has continued his rise up the UCI World Ranking, moving from eighth to sixth place after winning a stage and placing second overall in the Herald Sun Tour.
The Team Sky rider leapt into the top 10 of the newly-introduced World Ranking last week after he won the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race. Now he leapfrogs German sprinter André Greipel (Lotto-Soudal) to sit in sixth.
