Cycling South Africa congratulates athletes and officials who have been announced by SASCOC (South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee) as part of their South African Olympic Team for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in August.<\/p>\n
Cycling SA works tirelessly to prepare athletes to perform at international levels and events. The National Federation\u2019s nominations for team selections for this event included both men and women\u2019s teams for road, and a men\u2019s team for mountain bike and BMX cycling disciplines. We maintain that these nominations best support our Federation and country\u2019s opportunity of earning medals at the spectacular global sporting event.<\/p>\n
The full cycling team is listed below, which includes Daryl Impey and Louis Meintjes who were both named in the initial Team SA squad of 24 athletes announced by SASCOC on 25 May.<\/p>\n
