Snow Epic 2015 – Fatbike Winterfestival – Stage 5 – Gerschnialp

The weather gods finally smiled on Engelberg on Friday evening and gave the Snow Epic’s riders exactly what they wanted, snow. And lots of it. But with the abundant downfall came new challenges. Paths and roads that formed part of Race 5, the Snow Epic’s closing contest, were not in a condition to ride on and the start was delayed. Meanwhile, the organisers checked the route and made adjustments to ensure riders were able to enjoy the final day of the inaugural Snow Epic in safety. After a neutral start section, in which riders could not race but followed a quad bike at a sedate pace, they reached the ascent and the final day of racing officially began. After Friday's gruelling climbs and rapid descents, the riders faced their final challenge, a 300m ascent to Gerschnialp. Spain’s Ibon Zugasti again proved his strength on the climb, as he moved up the rankings and secured the final race victory of the first Snow Epic. Following closely was Switzerland’s Silvio Büsser, who beat Tomi Misser by only 7/10 of a second. Spaniatd Misser, however, still secured the overall victory in the men’s category. Second overall was Rune Hoydahl from Norway ahead of Büsser. Swiss legend Esther Süss once again won the women’s category and secured the overall victory. In second and third position were Alba Wunderlin and Amber Stull. The podium for Race 5 therefore matched the overall podium for the women’s category. ***************************************¬*********** ► Abonnieren/subscribe: http://goo.gl/8XgSFa ► Facebook: http://goo.gl/plspsr ***************************************¬********** Zum Ende des Events kam endlich der langersehnte Schnee und zwar sehr viel davon, sodass die Bedingungen zur abschließenden Etappe für die Fahrer neu waren und die Organisatoren vor Problemen stellte. Dies meisterten sie abermals gekonnt und zauberten eine super Strecke die mit dem Anstieg auf die Gerschnialp endete. Auf der letzten Etappe konnte sich der Spanier Ibon Zugasti durchsetzen. Bei den Frauen setzte sich die Gesamtsiegerin Esther Süss erneut durch.
