Luke Mudgway celebrates his stage two victory in the New Zealand Cycle Classic.
Black Spoke Pro Cycling Academy s Luke Mudgway has gone straight from the offensive to the defensive after claiming the yellow jersey in a sensational ride during stage two of the UCI 2.2 New Zealand Cycle Classic. Mudgway won the 158.1km stage in three hours, 39 minutes and 41 seconds in Masterton on Thursday. New Zealand National team member Corbin Strong crossed the line 17 seconds behind in second place, narrowly pipping Mudgway’s teammate Aaron Gate who finished third. It was a dominating performance by Mudgway who earlier in the stage won the two King of the Mountains climbs and more than enough points to claim that jersey.
