De Vos takes Murcia by storm
In awe-inspiring fashion, 🇨🇦 road champ Adam de Vos defied the odds to finish second in the opening stage of Vuelta Murcia and put on the Metas Volantes jersey.
The winning margin over the peloton? 17 minutes
Adam de Vos had a career defining ride on stage 1 of Vuelta Murcia on Friday, sprinting uphill to a second place finish ahead of his WorldTour breakaway companions. The man effectionately known as the "Sneaky Fox", disappeared up the road with nine others early in the day, never to be seen again. After nearly an hour of attacks, the breakaway reached the foot of the final cobbled climb intact where de Vos kicked off in pursuit of eventual stage winner Xandro Meurisse (Circus - Wanty Gobert) to finish second. De Vos moved into second place overall and now leads the Metas Volantes sprint competition.
