Malaysia
A birthday bicycle
Ci Hui's first bike was a birthday gift from her mother. Three years later she was riding for the national team. As she grew older, the number of races available to her at home became limited, with the national championship her main opportunity.
Finishing the seventh race
Her mother travelled with her at first and found reassurance in the environment at the hotel. Ci Hui did not finish her first six Belgian races, but advice from other riders helped her finish the seventh. During the stay she raced thirteen times and twice finished in the top twenty.
Learning together
Ci Hui describes the hotel as a cycling family and Cindy Pomares as a big sister who helped with racing and life skills. In her interview she talks about finding a European team and working towards a return to Malaysia's national team for the Southeast Asian Games.
