Hello maybe a bit late to make this one with it being the start of a two week break and that in my 3rd season here. So I might as well give the current cast of riders their attention because it could be the last season with the original line-up.


Noah Beullens (Belgium):
Our leader and climber, it's pretty hard being a rider and manager at the same time . Shown to be a great leader with some good results. Still has a few years ahead of him. He is still hoping that he will win a race

Dennis Asters (Belgium):
Our 'classic'-rider. The lieutenant of Beullens and an absolute beast of a helper. Gets some good results but is mostly a rider of the second line but that might have changed with his great training period.

Eliot Lelyvite (Estonia):
A really good flat-rider who is a helper and attacker. He is the only rider who doesn't have somebody who speaks his native tongue but that doesn't hurt him.

Katepu Petoa (Vanuatu) NC:
Our sprinter. He might not be the best sprinter but he does exactly what is asked of him. Being the leader of our Vanuatuan part of the team makes him an important part of the leaders.

Mau Timuani (Vanuatu):
Also a great flat-rider. He is a helper with all his heart. He is loyal to Petoa and know what he has to do to keep his leader save. Tried his best to get the title but couldn't beat Petoa.

Paenui Selau (Vanuatu):
Pretty decent helper who knows his place in the team. Does the job he has to do. He struggles a bit by being so far away from his home all the time.

Alopua Metua (Vanuatu):
The second half of the Vanuatu helpers. Still has a few years left in him. His high point was the 1-2 with Tulimanu.

Tulimanu Tapasei (Tuvalu):
The oldest one of the Tapasei brothers. Is the best normal helper in the team. Really has a nose for getting in breaks which make it really far or even go to the end. He is the first one to get a non NC race win after his attack with Metua.

Paulo Tapasei (Tuvalu):
The youngest one of the Tapasei brothers. Is really good friends with Dennis after two years in the club. Loved the NC and riding in his home country. Looking forward to the time after his career. Definetely after the birth of his 3 child (3rd son) Dennis (Named after Asters).

Asaia Sapele (Tuvalu) NC:
The second best sprinter in the team. Loves to exmplore the world and always gives it his all. Took the NC after a dominant sprint over his teammates.

Kioa Sopoaga (Tuvalu):
Our hill-sprinter who is just a bit too weak to get over the hills with the stronger riders. He tries to train as well as he can and is doing a good job with the skills he has. He was a bit down after the NC where he was shadowed by other riders which meant he couldn't ride away with his teammates and needed to sprint for p5.

Matti Tumau (Tuvalu):
Our future flat beast. He is the only one who wasn't here at the start because he was bought for season 2. Being so young means he will be a pillar for the future of the team to built on. The entire team tries to help him as much as they can through his road of becoming captain of the team.



Wins in october:
NC Vanuatu: After a pretty easy ride to get all 4 riders in front it was all down to a sprint. Petoa kept it cool and collected the moment he saw Timuani could follow him. The moment Timuani took the beat was the moment Petoa won the race.

NC Tuvalu: After a struggle to get away and a hard race 4 of the 5 riders got away and could fight for the title. Because of the fact that Sopoaga was the one left behind, made it a pretty easy win for Sapele. He learned from the win of Petoa and won from the front.

Tour de Tipaza 1b: After some tempo in the early hills of the team to catch the break the race died down. Tulimanu and Metua wanted to get animo in the race and attacked. The peloton didnt chase and they worked themselves over the last hill to go downhill to the finish. They kept the upcoming Havel and the rest of the peloton behind to make it a sprint-à-deux. Metua tried but couldn't beat the faster Tulimanu who gave the team its first real win.



I think that this was pretty good. I think i will do a december recap when the month is over and keep everyone up to date to the team. So this should become a monthly thing. I hope the team will take adventage of this 2 week break because of my exams and that they will be back for the rest of the month.

I see you all the next days, only not in races. See u guys soon and hope the team still trains well

Beullenscycling 1K Club:

Noah Beullens is the first rider in the history of the club to get 1,000 points. He did it today during the 5 Dias en Atacama tour. In his third season for the club he is the first to reach this milestone. He did this during a time where there weren’t really a lot of race where a lot of points could be scored. At the end of the season he will be inaugurated with a certificate on the wall of the clubhouse (we ain’t the biggest and richest team). We expect to get a bunch more riders in this club when the real cycling races begin and the big points races will be back.
