A powerful uphill surge gave Spain's Dani Moreno victory in stage two of the Criterium du Dauphine Tuesday while Briton Bradley Wiggins repelled some late challenges to maintain his narrow overall lead. Moreno moved away from the splintering pack late on the 2.4-km climb to Saint-Felicien to claim his biggest victory since a mountain top stage win in the Vuelta a Espana last September. France's Julien Simon took second place behind the Katusha rider on the fast-paced, sinuous 160-km stage through the Ardeche hills, with Frenchman Tony Gallopin finishing third.
