To be a competitive cyclist is tough. It requires hours and hours of sitting on a bicycle seat, training through all kinds of weather, climbing up steep hills (over and over again), covering more than 70 km in a day and preparing mental strategies.
And that’s just to get into the competitive scene.
Jafet is a 17-year-old with big cycling dreams. However, without proper equipment he wouldn’t be able to complete that dream. Thanks to donors from Huron County, Canada, he has a starter bicycle to help him train and take the first pedal strokes of turning his dream into reality.
In the first two weeks of owning the bike, he’s trained relentlessly. In one morning, he and some friends crossed 150 km of terrain as they get set to prepare for the upcoming road racing series.
It seems like he’s on his way.
