Cape Epic Stage 2 - Citrusdal to Tulbagh

The longest stage in the epic, of 144 km, took Mike Hogan 6 hours and 47 minutes.  He would have been 7th in the masters.  Unfortunately, he will not show in the results because he does not have a partner.  To find his result, you can scroll to the bottom of the results page here.

Thomas went into surgery last night at Pau Hospital.  The surgery went well, and he has a lot of hardware supporting his collarbone!

Team Multivan Merida was leading at the first spectator point, but had dropped off the back by the second.  Team Burry Stander - Songo (Christoph Sauser and Jarlsov Kulhavy) and Team Bulls (Karl Platt and Urs Huber) lead at the second and last spectator point, but Kulhavy and Sauser did not stand a chance today.  Team Bulls won the stage by almost 6 minutes over their second Bulls team, and by almost 9 over Team Burry Stander - Songo.  The Yellow Jersey was taken form Jose Hermida and Rudi van Houts of Team Multivan Merida by the Bulls team.
