Fantastic video.

"It's just going to be an experience, for him, to see what a 300 km race is all about" ... The most extreme 300 km race in recent memory, that is. This picture says it all

Cyclingnews had an article about him a few months ago.

Certainly a guy to root for.

eta: anyone know MTN-Qhubeka's race program for Europe this year? Their website isn't much help there.
I think they are relying on a lot of wild cards ATM, which is why Ciolek has been flying so early in the season.

It's great to see native Africans ride well, Daniel Teklehaimanot had a solid season last year and rode the Vuelta (was he the first black African to ride a GT?) hopefully the guys from Qhubeka can do the same.

Does anybody know much about the guys from MTN-Qhubeka? (other than Ciolek of course)
