The Sufferfest - Everybody Hurts
The small African country of Lesotho struggles with endemic poverty and a lack of opportunity for its 2 million people. It's the last place you would expect to find aspiring cyclists, much less a world-class mountain bike team. But The Sufferfest African Dream Team is all about shattering expectations. We talk to team director Mark West and racers Likeleli Masitise, Malefetsane Lesofe, and Bakang Ebudilwe about the challenges and triumphs of competing at the highest levels of the sport.
