Squier Posted April 3, 2014 Share A Grand Tour is gonna be one helluva experience for the guys.A big cycling lesson. It'll be a good developmental curve for them. Excited! Absolutely! And it's a stepping stone to other Grand Tours. Bigger exposure, more sponsors, more $$$ to develop our talent. Africa has arrived! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Posted April 3, 2014 Share Ciolek cant be numero uno in every race. Be fair now, they have shown across the board, they are more than a one trick outfit. They probably wont even put Ciolek in the Vuelta squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted April 3, 2014 Share The MTN-Qhubekateam has celebrated becoming the first African-registered team to secure an invitation to the Vuelta a Espana, by setting the goal of having at least 50% of its riders for its Grand Tour debut from Africa.http://www.cyclingne...elta-invitation Edited April 3, 2014 by Tumbleweed rouxtjie and Anatomic Sportswear 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anatomic Sportswear Posted April 3, 2014 Share Awesome news for Doug and the team - been a long time coming!Was gutted at their Giro miss, but this is the next best thing and may well actually suite them a bit better?Hopefully Meintjies and Augustyn can tear up those climbs!

Cellar Posted April 3, 2014 Share Won there before hasn't he? I think so, but I reckon they'll rather target a high overall place and some stage wins in the mountains with the saffa and African climbers (and maybe Linus). Well, that's what I'd plan around if I was the DS. Edited April 3, 2014 by Cellar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
