Tour de Slovakia: Anders Foldager captures uphill victory on stage 2

Denmark’s Anders Foldager has made it two out of two for Jayco-AIUIa within the Tour de Slovakia as he netted a solo uphill victory on stage 2 for the Australian crew.

After the race shattered on the ultimate quick climb on the finish of a rugged 192-kilometre trek from Nitra to Hilohovec, Foldager crossed the road one second away from Jenno Berckmoes (Lotto-Dstny) and Lukas Kobis (Elkov-Kasper). Former double world champion Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal-QuickStep) completed fourth.

Third throughout the road on stage 1 within the crew time trial received by Jayco-AIUIa, Foldager now strikes into the general lead, taking on from teammate Max Walscheid.

The younger Dane will now need to defend his lead on the significantly flatter stage 3, a 161-kilometre run from Piest’any to Dubnia nad Vahom.
