Stage eight took physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted riders 
through 80 kilometres of exquisite Winelands territory, with a total climb of 1 285 metres. After following the Palmiet River, riders passed through the apple orchards of Elgin and Grabouw, working their way to the summit of Sir Lowry's pass, where they were forced to carry their bikes down a slippery one kilometre descent over the historic national heritage site of the Voortrekkers ox wagon trail. In Lourensford, thousands of supporters welcomed the winning riders and over 1000 proud finishers. The crowd, a sea of red vuvuzelas, saw the 2007 Absa Cape Epic come to a heroic and festive end. Many riders were overwhelmed by emotions when they crossed the long awaited for finish line and received the coveted finisher T-shirt and medal.
