Eritrean cyclists make history at Tour de France

Two cyclists from Eritrea, Daniel Teklehaimanot and Merhawi Kudus, are making history in the world's most famous bicycle race.
The two riders are members of MTN Khubeka, the first ever African team in the Tour de France, as well as the first Eritreans to take part in the race.
Al Jazeera's Paul Rhys met up with the men in Amsterdam and talked to them about the build-up to their groundbreaking adventure.

Let's get our priorities here. What Africa needs are competitive footballers and a FIFA world cup.

[@temenow]

AnimefreakHQ Whose priorities are they? Who sets the priorities? They deserve much respect for writing history on their own talent! FIFA worldcup with countries like Cameron, Ivory Coast, Nigeria ..etc is just out of reach.
