[Bregnhøj]

Do anyone of you know any Middleeast Cycling Teams?
Turkish, Egyptian, Iranian and so on...

If you do, can you link to them? It would certainly be a great help.

Azad University Iran and Tabriz Petrochemical Team would probably be the best known. They're both Iranian, and if you go to the riders and teams menu on this site they both have pages there, I think.

there are a number of iranian professional teams. iran contains about a 100 pro riders and they make a good living because the oil rich tabriz region supports it a lot. it's one of the biggest sports there. in other islamic country's cycling is less of a big sport though.

But if I remember correctly, they had often problems with Visa and couldn't make it to some races.

non islamic country's they sometimes have visa problems yes, that's one of the reasons why you never see them in europe. the other reason is their president.
