“This is a great opportunity for both Jack and Karl to put into action everything they have learnt whilst riding for HMT Academy. Of course they will continue to learn and develop as u23’s while under the guidance of Raleigh GAC, and as a team we wish them all the best†commented a spokesperson for HMT Academy Cycling Team.
