Sauser and Kulhavy team up for Cape Epic

Specialized Racing confirmed that defending Cape Epic champion Christoph Sauser will be partnering with 2012 Olympic champion Jaroslav Kulhavy for this year's race as previously reported on Cyclingnews. The pair will be riding in memory of Burry Stander, Sauser's teammate last year at the mountain bike stage race. Stander was hit by a car and killed while training on his bike in South Africa in early January.
