The future's bright :
Just saw that MTN-Qhubeka have a wild-card entry to Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, so we'll be seeing these cats in action pretty soon.
I've just finished reading a book about Rwandan cycling called "The Land of Second Chances" which is largely about Adrien. Worth a read if the subject interests you.And some extra good news for African cycling fans... Adrien Niyonshuti is back and racing. Some may recall that this really promising rider was all lined up to do big things in Europe last season with MTN-Qhubeka and then was diagnosed with deep-vein thrombosis. The treatment meant blood thinners , leading of course to the opposite effect of what EPO does - low heamocrit, and therefore made it impossible for him to compete in 2013. Now he's better, yay.
