Alistair Blick has already announced himself as the new Blick on the block as former Team Captain Maxime Van Pee will be back in the fold today. The pair will be going for the top podium finish.
Kylan Wekesa has over the years grown into a force to be reckoned with. He is a joy watch, an entertainer and dare devil.
A 16 man contingent from Kenya has been in the country for a week and surely have had a chance to feel the track unlike their Tanzanian counterparts who jetted in on Saturday evening.
