Stage 2 - Sunday, March 30: George - Calitzdorp, 137km
Songo.info Team retains overall lead while Rocky Mountain women win stage and strengthen lead
|
In arguably the toughest stage ever in the history of the Absa Cape Epic, the Cannondale Vredestein team of Roel Paulissen and Jakob Fuglsang proved their endurance by winning both the time bonus competition and the day's stage. However, team Songo.info's Christoph Sauser and Burry Stander had gathered enough of a time advantage in yeterday's stage one to retrain the overall lead after finishing second, approximately five minutes behind the stage winners. They will go into stage three still in yellow.
In stage two, riders raced from George to Calitzdorp, a 137 km journey with 2,518m of climbing. The route took riders through a very hot Karoo (39°C) and up the toughest climbs. The first challenge of the day was Montagu Pass, with dirt roads winding 9km up an 8% average gradient through the spectacular mountains and valleys. After some loose, rolling tracks through Chandelier Game Reserve came the Gamkaberg killer - Breakback Mountain. The climb reached 1,100m in altitude with the steepest gradients at 18%. It was a technical climb and riders lost some traction with loose rocks in the path. The high-stakes descent with sharp rocks and hairpin bends made it scarier than the uphill. The last 15km to the Calitzdorp Spa was flat and fast, but still gruelling as temperatures soared and wind conditions made it worse.
Cannondale Vredestein rises to challenge of toughest stages

Paulissen and Jakob Fuglsang crossed the finish line of stage two in an impressive time of 5:07:11. They were followed by stage one winners Songo.Info's Sauser and Stander at 5:12:44. The German ALB-Gold Mountainbike team of Hannes Genze and Jochen Kaess finished third in 5:14:43, beating South Africans MTN Energade (1) Kevin Evans and David George by three seconds in a sprint finish.
Paulissen said that after stage one, where they placed sixth, they wanted to prove to themselves that it was an exception. "We decided early on in the race to just go for it and take the risk, and therefore raced hard from the beginning. The first three days of any stage race is always difficult for me as I'm more used to two hour races, compared to the five hours of the Absa Cape Epic every day - but then I get stronger as we complete stage after stage."
Commenting on his racing partner Fuglsang, he said that he was extremely proud of him. "Jakob was leading our team for 70 to 80 kilometres of the race. He is just such a talent - I love to watch him. Not many young riders have his mental strength out there - he's a great fighter."

For the first time in any major mountain bike stage race, time bonus points were awarded today in the King of the Mountain competition at the top of the first major climb, Montague Pass, 25 km into the race. There, the Cannondale Vredestein team gained a 40 second time bonus. Songo.Info team followed in second for a 20 second time bonus. The 10 second time bonus for third went to MTN Energade (1).
Behind Songo.info in the overall lead (10:24:49) is Cannondale Vredestein, only four minutes back. Third overall is Alb-Gold Mountainbike (10:34:05), with Bulls (10:43:29) and Dolphin (10:51:17) in the fourth and fifth places respectively.
Kaess (ALB-Gold Mountainbike) said that their advantage during stage two was that they did not push the envelope too much during the previous stage. "Many riders are over-enthusiastic and push too hard from the word go, and we noticed how some had to pay for it during this gruelling stage."
MTN Energade, the team that walked away with the yellow leader jersey after the prologue, made an impressive comeback during stage two. Kevin Evans commented that after he became ill on the road the day before, and lost a lot of fluids as a result, he recovered fully when the medical team of the Absa Cape Epic gave him two litres of fluids intravenously. "By this time, the bug that was in my system must've been out due to my mild hydration. For stage two, we were back in top form."
Rocky Mountain women expand their lead
|
In the elite women's race, Team Rocky Mountain's Pia Sundstedt and Alison Sydor won a second consecutive stage in 6:05:53. Prologue winners Trek / VW's Sue Haywood and Jennifer Smith finished second at 10:53. Dolphin-Trek's Fabienne Heinzmann and Katrin Schwing were third, less than nine minutes further back.
Sundstedt and Sydor's strong stage two gave them an overall time of 12:33:30 and then now hold a lead of 30 minutes over Haywood and Smith. Heinzmann and Schwing are in a tight battle for second, however, just 26 seconds behind the Trek duo.
Smith and Haywood both agreed that the pace during stage two was very high - even for the ladies. "After the second waterpoint, the pace suddenly slowed down and we were wondering why," said Smith. "Afterwards we realised that some people knew about the climb ahead, and they were reserving their energy for the challenge. We asked one of the riders how long the climb was and he said a couple of kilometres. We thought he was joking...little did we know it was 10km long!"
Haywood said that she and her team-mate had a good ride together as they initially needed to find each other's strengths and weaknesses during stage one, but that they now believe that the collaboration between them is ideal. "We ran out of water towards the end, and we were convinced that we were just going to die out there and no one would ever find us. Fortunately, a spectator made his appearance and told us we were very close to the finish line. We were so relieved and thrilled when it was all over."
Heinzmann in turn had a scare early on in the race when another participant rode into her, resulting in a knee injury. "My knee was very stiff after that and for the first couple of strokes I wasn't sure whether I would be able to go on. Fortunately, as time passed, we closed the gap between us and the group." But more hardship awaited Heinzmann when she later on rode into barbed wire, which not only damaged her tyre, but also her wheel and spokes. "Yet again, we lost time while we had to fix the problem and the group was gone again. It was truly scary and tough to ride 50km on our own in the wind after everyone was gone!"
Schwing in turn was still suffering from a cold, but gained her strength during the final climb and for the first time took the lead in her team. Once again they managed to close the gap between them and the other ladies' teams. "But towards the end we were really tired and had to concentrate going downhill. We didn't want to risk a fall and took is easy - so we lost the group again and crossed the finish line on our own."
The South African team of Hanlie Booyens and Erica Green (Absa Ladies) finished in fourth place after disagreeing over some technical issues before the race. Bor Booyens had insisted that Green ride with a Camelback and two water bottles containing almost five litres of water. "Thank goodness we did, as we used all of it," Green said. "We enjoyed a very solid ride, but we are still waiting for a day when these international monsters can give us a chance to win a stage. We know we are racing against the best in the world, but all we want is to be the best ladies team from South Africa."
Masters: From foe to friend
Absa Masters Doug Brown and Barti Bucher once again defended their leader jersey with another stage win in a time of 5:45:50. Shan Wilson and Walter Platzgummer (Adidas William Simpson) came in second at 5:58:19, followed by Pragma Masters M.C. Franken and Peter Buggle at 6:06:53. Overall, the teams remained in the same positions as the stage win results with respective overall times of 11:29:34, 11:42:50 and 12:19:32.
Brown expressed his admiration of Platzgummer when he said that he has such a good reputation that every single stage will be a battle between them. "We can never be confident that we've beaten them no matter what. I also know Shan Wilson well as we've ridden Transalp together; I know his capabilities."
Wilson got a puncture early on in the race, which provided the Absa Masters with an opportunity to pull away and take the lead. 3km later Brown got a puncture, but fortunately he fixed it before the Adidas William Simpson team could catch up with them. Both teams agreed that Breakback Mountain was one of the toughest climbs ever for any race.
"We had to fight with every peddle stroke," Wilson said. "But we stayed calm and kept our wits about us." Brown and Wilson met each other at last year's Transalp Challenge where they were riding in competing teams. "On one stage Barti broke his pedal on an uphill and kept on going as if nothing has happened. That's when I decided he would be my perfect partner for the Absa Cape Epic. I asked him after the race and his immediate response was yes!" To top it off, Doug Brown and Barti Bucher share the same birthdate and year. "Age is not an excuse for our team," Doug chuckled.
Women: The lady with the iron will
Another repeat win in the Mixed category awaited Joybike Guided by Vmt and Maloja when Germans Ivonne Kraft and Nico Pfitzenmaier completed their stage race at 6:08:03, followed by South Africans Yolande de Villiers and Johan Labuschagne (Cyclelab Toyota) in second place at 6:24:41. Hot on their heels were fellow South Africans Fourie Kotze and Amy Mundy (Adidas) at 6:31:10. Overall results revealed the same order as the stage win: Joybike Guided by Vmt and Maloja in first (12:34:48), Cyclelab Toyota in second (13:03:26) and adidas in third position (13:38:02)
De Villiers said that after her six punctures during stage one the day before, stage two left her with "legs punctures" at the Gamkaberg killer challenge. "But the real problem was that I couldn't feel my left arm and shoulder, which was completely numb. I tore two ligaments during the Argus Cycle Tour, but I was still determined to ride the Absa Cape Epic. But when my arm went numb, it felt like I had no control over my bike - it was very scary, especially during the technical downhill."
Labuschagne commented that all he has to do during the race is keep up with his team-mate. "Yolande is so fast and a very tough lady. It is my job to protect her from the wind and make sure she doesn't get in trouble. I was worried today when I noticed that Yolande had no control over her bike. I urged her to drive slowly and carefully at times and that I would be there for her."
Next stop: Riversdale
Stage three of the Cape Epic will take riders from Calitzdorp to Riversdale, with a distance of 133km and climbing of 2,340m. The teams will be taken up a 13 km steady drag on smooth dirt roads over Rooiberg Pass. It's a long climb that steepens to 9% before a 70kph decent into the valley. After some sharp, rolling hills, riders cross game country, where antelope, giraffe, leopard, and caracal will watch the riders charge through. From there on the terrain will be tough. Maximum concentration is needed to preserve bike and body. The rock formations are as geologically fascinating as they are race threatening (if riders choose a bad line or make a bad tyre choice). Even after riders survived the punctures and the heat, there is still a long slog on dirt roads before Garcia Pass. They'll welcome the tarred, gentle climb and fast descent that takes them into Riversdale, for a hard-earned rest.
