Hunter Wins again


Day 5 of the Intaka Tech World’s View Challenge ended with Team Barloworld captain Robbie Hunter winning another big sprint finish, with the rest of the team not far behind.

Team Barloworld looked strong from the beginning with Points Jersey winner, Christian Pfannberger taking an early break which he held until the final 10km’s of the race. The team worked hard to control the chasing peloton and maintain Pfannberger’s notable lead, knowing that with the final section of the race being flat, they could set Hunter up for another strong sprint finish.

Robbie Hunter, Team Barloworld captain comments, “Racing in South Africa is very special as, being based overseas, I don’t get to do it very often. It is great to be able to win here again on home soil.”

Race results:

  1. Hunter (Team Barloworld)
  2. Van Heerden (Konica Minolta)
  3. Van Heerden (MTN)
