2015 ABSA Cape Epic: Stage 4 Video Highlights.

South Africans Philip Buys and Matthys Beukes notched up the first South African win in the 2015 Absa Cape Epic after an audacious early break on Wednesday's rugged 111km Stage 4.

The looped route – starting and finishing in Worcester – included some back-breaking climbs and rocky surfaces, giving rise to many tyre problems throughout the field.

The sun also made conditions difficult for some of the backmarkers.

Topeak Ergon's Kristian Hynek of the Czech Republic and Austrian Alban Lakata finished together with Sauser and Kulhavy, three-and-a-half minutes behind the South Africans.

In the ladies category once more Annika Langvad and Ariane Kleinhans were unbeatable!
