CapeStorm Cycling team: Cycling events in Cape i.e. PPA

Career Synopsis

First race ever on a bicycle was the 1998 Cape Argus as a substitution on a borrowed bike. I have been hooked on cycling ever since. Have completed the Argus 11 times of which 7 has been Sub 3 hours. Started racing for the Maties Cycling Team in 2002 with the highlight being the Tour de Windhoek. This was also the year that I first started racing Elite League. I then joined Team Unicyc in 2003 and formed part of the team that won the 2003 Double Century in record time. I was also selected to compete in the 2004 Giro del Capo. I started mountain biking (during the off season) in 2006 and got some good results all throughout the year, although I was not part of a team during this period. Later in 2006 I joined Team Ngubane and raced the Spring and Summer League as well as the Double Century. May 2008, I stared cycling for CapeStorm cycling team taking part in mountain bike races though out the winter.

I have competed in over 175 races since my humble start in 1998, and with the support of CAPESTORM I am sure I will be competing in many more

Recommended Capestorm Kit

The Matrix bibs are awesome. Nice and cool with comfortable padding. It is also nice and low in the front for when nature makes a call! For casual wear when it’s a bit cold it's the Freefall Fusion Jacket. Nice and snuggly
