Claudio Posted October 31, 2013 Share Both local and international mountain biking enthusiasts will be taking on the demanding eight day Absa Cape Epic of 718km with 14 850m of climbing during next year’s event. With its unexplored landscapes, the stage locations of Robertson, Greyton and Oak Valley Wine estate await the most prestigious mountain bike stage race in the world, before riders again finish at the Lourensford Wine Estate.

I don't know if Wells can keep up though. Tough situation and like you said, he would like a partner that is up to the task. Maybe they will have to look outside the spez stable. Would like to see him and maybe lekata, don't think it will happen though nathrix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fantana Posted November 1, 2013 Share I hear that Alban Lakata is targeting the Epic as his major goal next year. It could be interesting since Marathon World Champs and TransAlps used to be his major goals in previous years. They also had a bit of bad luck with his teammate colliding with that antelope this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr X Posted November 5, 2013 Share It would be cool if mtb stage racing could become more individualistic or more like road cycling team based. It would be nice to see Sauser destroy all opposition like this year in the Attakwas where he won with a massive gap, a new course record, despite multiple punctures and mechanicals.
