The Czech racer has become a regular at the early season three-race series, and since the preparation has worked so well for him in the past, he's back again to kick off his season in the same way durᩚ📖ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚing this Olympic year.
ꩵ"It's the sixth time in a row that I have come to Cyprus to ride the races of the Sunshine Cup," said Kulhavy. "It's a perfect prepar♐ation for the season. I like it very much. I can test my form, and I can test my new bike."
Ku🐈lhavy, who is also the defending World Cup champion and one of the favorites for an Olympic gold medal in London in August, finds the technically demanding trails of Cyprus to his liking.
The Sunshine Cup is organized by the Bikin' Cyprus💜 agency and the Cyprus Cycling Federation. A rep🍨resentative, Alekos Orountiotis, was happy to hear words of praise from Kulhavy. "It's very important to have the world champion here. We are happy he is here. It shows the results of our efforts all these years."
The Sunshine Cu🌌p is one tool of the Cyprus Tourism Organization (CTO) for increasing visitors to the island between November and March, but the series is taking nothing for granted. The recent financial crisis in the region has affected the event - financial support for the race has decreased.
🌳"Hopefully, this is only for one year and we can support the Cyprus ꦆSunshine Cup in the same way as the years before," said Orountiotis.
