KUALA LUMPUR: The 27th edition of the Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) ended with a bang with Gleb Syritsa of Astana Qazaqstan Cycling taking the final stage and Simon Carr of EF Education-EasyPost confirming his status as the best overall rider.

It was Syritsa’s second stage victory in this year’s edition as a full pro, and his third career win in LTdL, after taking last year’s Kuala Lumpur stage in Astana colours at the same spot.
