Egan Bernal had to settle for bronze at the Colombian National Championships road race, but the Ineos Grenadiers rider was heartened by his best result and performance since the life-threatening crash he suffered in training two years ago.
Alejandro Osorio (GW Erco Shimano) claimed the title with a long-range attack, and he withstood a spirited pursuit from Bernal and silver medallist Sergio Higuita (Bora-Hansgrohe), who closed to within four seconds by the finish in Tunja.
