Two More CCN Riders Finish in the Top Four

CCN Factory Racing added two more top results. Ng Wing Chung took third overall in 4:50:29.68, while teammate Yip Hon Man finished fourth in 4:50:30.36.

A Challenging Course Along Taiwan’s Pacific Coast

With the route adjusted for road safety in the Taroko section, riders raced along Taiwan’s eastern Pacific coastline. The course included two ascents of Niushan and two crossings of the Coastal Mountain Range via Yuchang Highway before finishing in Yanliao, Hualien.

Attacks shaped the race across the long course. After a series of breakaways and regroupings, Yeh and Lu made the decisive move in the Fengbin–Jingpu section and held their lead to the finish.
