Video from Stage 3 of the 2010 ABSA Cape Epic
Specialized Factory Racing | April 15, 2010
Riders get to warm up on undulating terrain before facing the major obstacle of the day and perhaps of the whole race, this high mountain and the radical descent will determine Stage 3. It appears in two parts of which the first follows a wagon trail at a 12% gradient, built over a hundred years ago and becoming continuously more rugged as the climb goes on. A short flat section follows allowing for some recovery, and giving riders a view of the peak high above which will soon be referred to as Mount Evilrest. The surface to the summit is smooth but the gradients reach 25%.
