Réniell is at it again...


Wilde Pure Pressed and Squeezed Fruit Juice sponsors Réniell Matthysen - a superb track cyclist who is making a great comeback after a quiet cycling year in 2007.

The Neotel Yorkshire Cycling Club hosted its first local Summer Track League (STL) at the Faure Street Stadium in Paarl on Friday 10 October 2008.

Réniell Matthysen was dominating the night's open category race. Then he went on to take victories in the 15 lap point race, elimination race as well as the Elite 3 lap scratch race. He did well, although receiving some stiff competition from Brandon Christians - the up-and-coming junior rider from Neotel Rhadsport.

The second leg of the STL was held on Friday 17 October 2008, where, Réniell faced some opposition from Garth Thomas (Tygerberg), Wesley Bradshaw (Bellville CC) and Brandon Christians.

Réniell opened the evening with a convincing win in the 15 lap scratch race. Then he also thrived by taking first place in the 3, 6 and 30 lap races. The elimination race saw Réniell Matthysen take second place after a good, but challenging run.

Keep it up, Réniell!
