AS Joanna van de Winkel basks in the glory of her impressive weekend victories at the aQuellé Tour Durban and aQuellé Tour Durban MTB powered by Cycle Lab, the provisional and secondary race results have been verified.

The big individual winner of the weekend was, without doubt, Hillcrest-based star Van de Winkel, who secured victory in Saturday’s MTB race and then went on to defend her women’s title in the road race on Sunday, as well.

Her teammate, Bridget Theunissen, was runner-up in the MTB, with young Errin Mackridge showing her versatility by following up her MTB third with a second in the road race.

On the men’s side, Daniel van der Watt and Ivan Harkema were the two riders who emerged as the champions in the MTB and road race respectively, with an impressive showing from veteran Andrew Hill, allowing him to finish second in the off-road event, while Brent Yelland followed up his third place on Saturday by narrowly finishing second on the sprint in the road race.

In the six-person Gooderson Leisure Team Race, Team Bio (comprising Darryl Sloan, Peter Comrie, Jason Lowe, Angus Mcfarlane, Byron Cochran Bonfas and Mbuso Mhlongo) took overall honours while the Suicide Squad team (Darren Park, Justine Schultz, Amanda Wray, Justin Kirby, Alain Marcon and Stuart Singleton) won the mixed category.
