MBABANE– Kusekhaya Cycling Club has released the list of cyclists who will be representing the club at one of the biggest races in the continent and world.
The Cape Town Cycle Tour is an annual race that is hosted in the city of Cape Town in neighboring South Africa and attracts over 35 000 cyclists from all over the world, making it the largest individually timed cycling race in the world.
“We at Kusekhaya Cycling are proud to announce our squad of seven athletes who will represent the brand in the prestigious international race in South Africa. The athletes have been working hard since the start of the year preparing physically and mentally for the race and it has finally come,” said Mduduzi Kaudi, the Team Principal.
Kaudi added that it is exciting that for this race, women form the majority in the composition of the team.
“The participation of women in the sport remains one of our goals and we trust that the continued efforts and activities by the club will inspire other women to take up the sport, not only recreationally but competitively too,” he said.
The Cape Town Cycle Tour will be staged on Sunday and the Kusekhaya team is expected to be settled in Cape Town on Saturday and will return on Monday.
“March is one of the busy months for our cyclists as we have the Sisekelo MTB race, Cosmos 3in1 as well as Emperors Classic.”
