Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>Asmara, 28 January 2024<\/b> \u2013 Natnael Tesfazion, an Eritrean professional cyclist with the American Lidl-Trek team, claimed second place at the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race in Australia today. Natnael Tesfazion finished closely behind the stage winner, Australian cyclist Laurence Pithie, after a tight sprint to the finish line. He completed the 174.3 km race in 4 hours, 17 minutes, and 40 seconds, averaging a speed of 40.5 km\/h.<\/p>\n

The race featured numerous attempts of breakaways. In a dramatic turn of events with just 9 km remaining, several frontrunners, including Eritrea\u2019s Biniam Girmay from the Belgian Intermarche\u0301-Wanty team, fell back from the leading pack.<\/p>\n

Natnael was part of an elite group of 13 riders who tackled a challenging climb with a 7.8% grade, demonstrating his sprinting skill to win his second silver medal in this prestigious Australian event. His first silver was earned at the tour\u2019s opening race on January 13.<\/p>\n

Further success for Eritrea came on January 25, when Biniam Girmay won a gold medal at the Australian Surf Coast Classic 2024, also representing Intermarche\u0301-Wanty.<\/p>\n

The Eritrean community in Australia has been notably supportive, enthusiastically cheering for their cyclists throughout the tour, drawing attention from various groups.<\/p>\n

In related news, Natnael Berhane, another distinguished Eritrean cyclist representing the Beykoz Belediyesi Spor club from Tu\u0308rkiye, secured second place in a one-day race in Tu\u0308rkiye yesterday. Natnael Berhane completed the 139 km race in 3 hours, 26 minutes, and 5 seconds, maintaining an average speed of 40.6 km\/h.<\/p>\n

Eritrean cyclists have continued to achieve remarkable results on the international stage, with five podium finishes in various competitions just one month into 2024.<\/p>\n
