  14. Late check-out,
    Runners on strike in the second stage of the Tour du Maroc.

    The 2-hour delay of the start of the second stage of the Tour du Maroc has impeded the smooth running of the race: the riders went on strike after 50 km of the race, complaining that the delayed departure, which occurred after the 15, would have forced them to arrive Fes in the dark. There remains the leading young South African Reinhardt Janse van Rensburg (MTN-Qhubeka), who yesterday completed the first stage coming in alone to the finish in Tetouan.

  15. For some funny reason I CAN NOT SEE frekalsi debesai and dawet haile..?
    all i see is 4 riders Mekseb Debesay, Tesfom Ogbamarial, Meron Amanuel, Debretsion Aron and meron russom from Team MTN Qhubeka


    | gazella | Sunday 25 March 2012 om 16h22

  16. According to Hadas Eritrea newspaper, Frekalsi and Dawit Haile did not make it to Morocco, that means Eritrea will be participating with 4 riders.

    | Santa | Sunday 25 March 2012 om 16h51

  17. Team MTN Qhubeka are the favorite to win this tour , I fell sad for the Eritrean team coz they two of their riders didn't join due to visa problems..
    stage 3 results..

    Brown won in 02min 55sec 4h, ahead of fellow team member Reinardt Janse Van Rensburg (4h 13:05), winner of the first stage between Tangier and Tetuan, while the Ukrainian Yuri Metlusenko came in 3rd position (4h 13: 10).

  28. @Abel Definitely i agree..The Federation is too weak, but i don't know when this change will happen...

    | Tedros | Wednesday 28 March 2012 om 10h48

  29. The Eritrean Cyclist Federation is not doing its job. I do believe Visa is not the reason for Frekalsi and Dawit, if that was the case Meron Russom would be in the same boat. The federation needs restructure. I also want to know why is not Samsom Solomon not the Head coach??

    | Santa | Wednesday 28 March 2012 om 16h04

  30. Eritrean cycling federation are the most stupid federation they don't learn from their mistakes! it was better not to participate instead of fooling us.

    | robel | Wednesday 28 March 2012 om 17h41

  31. @ robel you are the stupid one who undermine His own Countries Federation in public. what did you contribut to that federation or the country ? am sure you didn't contribute a single penny, Bone Head, think twice before you give comment.

    | Isayas | Thursday 29 March 2012 om 06h38

  32. Eritrean cycling Federation will never learn from their past mistakes end of story.

    | REDSEA.S.CLUB | Thursday 29 March 2012 om 08h18

  33. @Isayas, Go and read our Media, unlike you they publicly criticize them! don't tell me if it's in tigrigna it's not public. well call me to +2911150003, I will tell you what i am contributing to my country ( that i wouldn't in public). then u will compare with Ur penny, i still respect if you contribute a penny though!

  43. Well they could have dominated the tour as usual. The thing is even those who were there are also good enough but they were only four and the team had no real climber.

  44. @Isayas, Ya criticizing may look easy but one who cares is one who criticizes. but if hear the rumours in asmara regarding the federation it's a joke. Its only cycling federation in Eritrea that they are given big badget from the president. But still they are dong nothing. Some thing is spoiled inside.
    Any how good job to our riders they come back strog.
