Gapyeong Cycling Team's Joo holds off Morales in thrilling Baguio finish; Pascual tops killer stage
Korean Joo Dae Yeong unleashed a last-gasp effort in the killer mountains of Benguet to rule one of the closest local races in history in the revived 2025 Tour of Luzon on Thursday, May 1.
The 28-year-old top rider of the Gapyeong Cycling Team refused to relent after busting a rear tire heading to Baguio City and still went for it as he did the whole race to clock 4 hours, 21 minutes and 31 seconds in the challenging 177.54-kilometer Stage 8 that started in Lingayen, Pangasinan and ended inside Camp John Hay here.
It was enough for the two-time national Korean champion to capture the overall individual title, accumulating 22 hours, 21 minutes and eight seconds after eight gruelling stages that started in Paoay, Ilocos Norte and passed by Ilocos Sur, La Union, Tarlac, Pampanga, Pangasinan and Benguet.
He also pocketed the P1 million top purse.
