Oier Lazkano (Movistar) claimed the lead of the Boucles de la Mayenne after riding away from his breakaway companions to win stage 2.

The Spaniard was part of a five-man escape that gained enough time to stay away. Lazkano left his companions behind on the final lap to solo to victory. Célestin Guillon (Van Rysel-Roubaix Lille Métropole) stayed clear for second along with Jacob Hindsgaul (Uno-X), who finished third.
