Joo Dae Yeong tops Tour of Luzon Stage 11

SAN JUAN, La Union  —Under the scorching heat of the sun on Sunday, South Korean Joo Dae Yeong let everyone know why he’s the MPTC Tour of Luzon defending champ. 

Clocking 3:19:16 in the 158.7 km distance race from Candon Arena to San Juan Town Hall, the Gapyeong Cycling Team ace crossed the finish line by just about a foot.

About a dozen of seconds away from his chasers, Joo alighted from his bike, and then took a bow.

The 29-year-old got back on his bike and slowly pedaled as he exchanged high fives to the fans on the side.
