Jeremiah Bishop takes 2nd today in Costa Rica.

Hector Leonardo Paez (Full Dynamix) has taken a large lead in the La Ruta de los Conquistadores after the first day of racing. He put nearly 15 minutes in front of Jeremiah Bishop (Trek-VW). Bishop's obstacles were mainly mechanical problems: " ...my cassette broke to pieces...

Costa Rica's Andrei Amador (BCR Pizza Hut) preserved local pride with third, almost seven minutes behind Bishop.

Defending champion Thomas Frischknecht (Swisspower) fell of the leader's, succumbing to the heat and humidity - although going off course in the final 15 kilometers didn't help matters.
