Team Dimension Data for Qhubeka celebrate stage win and raising 100 bikes for girls
Tom Dumoulin (Team Sunweb) won the 100th edition of the Giro d’Italia after eclipsing his GC rivals in the final individual time trial stage in Milan. Nairo Quintana (Movistar) finished 2nd overall and Vincenzo Nibali (Bahrain-Merida) was 3rd. Jos Van Emden (LottoNL-Jumbo) was the final stage victor.

For Team Dimension Data for Qhubeka, the final 29km individual time trial stage was never going to favour our 7 riders and so the day became one of celebrating our success over the past 3 weeks. There is much our African Team can be happy about with Omar Fraile’s stage 11 victory the standout performance.

Our riders rode with positive intent on a daily basis, animating the race and it showed through all the various classifications. Both Daniel Teklehaimanot and Omar Fraile wore the king of the mountains jersey, with our Basque rider finishing 3rd overall in that competition in the end. As one of the top 3 breakaway riders of this years race, Teklehaimanot also managed to rack up enough points to win the intermediate sprint classification.
