episode 13: The African Challenge
In this episode of Kilometre 0 we focus on the African riders who have begun to make an impression on the Tour de France in the past decade.
We hear from Doug Ryder, boss of the first African team to ride the Tour, now known as Dimension Data-Qhubeka, Louis Meintjes of UAE-Team Emirates, who finished eighth last year and is high in the overall classification again, and the first Ethiopian to ride the Tour, Tsgabu Grmay.
Kilometre 0 is supported by Nederburg Wines.
