Nic White
Nic is a master tactician, which in a team sport like road cycling is a significant asset. A professional for 11 years, Nic is one of the most experienced riders in the South African peloton and can read a race better than anyone! He’s a fast time-trialist and a strong climber, the two key qualities required to be an accomplished stage racer.
He’s been instrumental in many of teammate Malcolm Lange’s victories over the years and his captaincy experience will be put to good use in 2009. Winner of the prestigious UCI Africa Tour in 2008, Nic is considered one of the continent’s biggest cycling stars.
