The 2008 UCI Junior World Championships came to a close with the Men's Individual Road Race, which took place in the centre of Cape Town today. Perfect weather conditions were conducive to a very high pace from the start.

The peloton strung out early, indicative of the leaders' determination to make an early bid for the gold medal. An early breakaway attempt by Russia and the Ukraine built up a respectable lead of 1'50" seconds ahead of the peloton. But a combined effort by the top nations not represented brought the two riders back into the safety of the field.

The testing course lived up to its reputation and produced a worthy champion in Johan le Bon of France. The silver medal went Mattia Cattaneo of Italy and Sebastian Lander of Denmark took the bronze in a bunch sprint.

This morning the 21st gold of the championship went to Jolien D'Hoore of Belgium in the Ladies' Road Race final, the men's race was the final medal of the championship.

"It was a great privilege for the Mother City to host the world championship and we want to thank UCI for their confidence in again choosing our city and country," Councillor Grant Haskin said. "The economic injection into our city has been predicted as over R30 million part of which is the 20 000 bed nights utilized by participants and their teams and families."

Australia led in the medal stakes with seven gold, France has six and Germany four at the end of the Championships.

As the ten days' of the Junior Worlds came to an end, Dr Wagih Azzam, President of the African Federation, paid tribute to the young cyclists who had travelled so far to compete in South Africa. "We have the cream of the cycling crop competing here and the events have showcased South Africa's ability to host this world class event," he said.
