It was our first official big race back.\u201d<\/p>\n Bonitas Pro Cycling will be looking to repeat a breakaway like they did at last year\u2019s Herald VW Cycle Tour. \u201cIt\u2019s always a gamble when the riders are in a big bunch,\u201d continued Buys. \u201cBut hopefully our sprinters will be ready. Herman (Fouche) is our nominated team sprinter. He is defending his Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cycle Tour title this year, and his preparations have been good.\u201d<\/p>\n Bonitas Pro Cycling riders participating in The Herald VW Cycle Tour <\/span><\/p>\n Luthando Kaka<\/p>\n Herman Fouche<\/p>\n Dylan Girdlestone<\/p>\n Clint Hendricks<\/p>\n Chris Jennings<\/p>\n Jayde Julius<\/p>\n HB Kruger<\/p>\n Jevandre Pauls<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" South African road cycling teams are starting the 2014 season with a bang as they prepare for the second major race of the year, The Herald VW Cycle Tour, which takes place in Port Elizabeth on 2 February.
