The KAP sani2c Race kicks off on Thursday 24 April, where, for the first time in the 20-year history of the event, there will be a Prologue for the UCI registered riders. KAP sani2c is now a Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Category 2 marathon stage race and points are allocated per rider - which means that each rider from the first team across the line will be awarded 80 points to their UCI ranking.
Michael Foster ‘grew up with sani2c’, and later this month the 22-year-old heads to the 20th edition of KAP sani2c as a pro rider with the PYGA Euro Steel team of Phil Buys, Pieter du Toit, and Jaedon Terlouw, who he will partner with for the Race. He says: “I just want to ride my bike fast.”
