Canadian Ray struck first with a podium finish on the opening stage, coming in third behind Drap♔ac Pro Cycling's Will Clark and UnitedHealthcare's Carlos Alzate. Avila rode into the top 10 during stage 2 with a ninth-place result in a stage won by Vino4Ever's Stepan Astafyev.

Ray was 🎃Illuminate's top finished on the final stage, coming in 12th. Avila was next for Illuminate in 14th. Overall, the team finished fourth in the team competition won by Avanti.

“This is the most inter♓national tea🌳m I’ve been on," Ray said after the tour. "There is a lot of flair and silliness, saving our seriousness for the business end of the race. It was our first time together, but it felt as though we’ve been a team for years. We all want to see each other succeed and seem to have similar racing styles; we compliment each other really well.”

Team General ဣManager Chris Johnson said he was encouraged by the team'sಞ start.

"This was our first trip as a team and Taiwan was the perfect destination because of the strong cycling culture that exists there, and the race gave us the ability to connect with individuals and communities on the island to celebrate the power of the bicycle," he said. "I was excited not only by how the team did results-wise in Taiwan, but also with how the riders came t♑ogether as a group."
