The first three days of the 2007 Absa Cape Epic presented by adidas have made for arguably the hardest start yet in the history of the race, but spirits are high, with many top riders agreeing that this is the best race yet in terms of organisation, route structure and, most importantly, food.
SA Ladies Lead Cape Epic
South Africa continues to lead the women’s division in the 2007 ABSA Cape Epic after stage 2’s Uniondale to Oudtshoorn provisional rankings, when 2006 SA Woman’s Marathon Mountain Biker of the Year Yolande de Villiers and Duravit team partner Anke Erlank-Moore edged home more than 22 minutes in front of their nearest competitors on Sunday.
