Biniam Girmay is a previous winner of Gent-Wevelgem and took a stage at the Giro d’Italia in 2022 but nothing is quite like this:
“First of all, thanks God for everything. Since I started cycling, I never dreamed to be part of the Tour de France, now I can’t believe it,” he said.
My second year in the Tour. In Africa we must be proud and part of the big races. Congrats to my whole team,. Now it’s our moment. I am super happy. This for all Africa, I am just super happy. In the last kilometre I lost the wheel of Gerben Thijssen and tried myself.”
