In Lugano was held on the second leg of the BMC Racing Cup, which has seen the success of german rider Milatz Moritz with a great performance that beat Christoph Sauser, who finally seems to have found a good form after the Cape Epic, and Martin Fanger, young talent Giant Swiss Team Suntour. Great satisfaction for the German since the circuit is sponsored by it's main sponsor (BMC).
In the women's race the swiss rider Kathrin Stirnemann won before the 35 year-old Marielle Guinchard and strong xcm rider Esther Suss. The races were held on a slippery path to the heavy rains fell in the night of Saturday.
