National cyclist Goh Choon Huat is set to be the first Singaporean to race for a professional team in Europe when he joins Team BikeExchange as a stagiaire for three months from July.
A stagiaire is an amateur cyclist riding temporarily for a professional team. Besides training with the team, Goh will also get opportunities to race in the Vuelta a Burgos in Spain, the Tour of Slovakia and the Tour of Croatia, where he will do "teamwork duties" such as acting as a pacesetter who helps in the team's overall strategy.
