This week, Reinardt Janse van Rensburg reminded people of his talent after winning Binche - Tournai – Binche in Belgium, outsprinting a large peloton to cross the line several metres ahead of Bjorn Leukemans (Vacansoleil DCM) and Greg Van Avermaet (BMC Racing Team). In 2012, while part of then Continental team MTN-Qhubeka, Janse van Rensburg was hot property on the cycling circuit. Fourteen UCI victories ensured that teams took notice of the young South African who was starting to make a name for himself. By the close of the season, he had several top teams vying for his signature. He eventually settled with Argos-Shimano.

In this series of interviews we will introduce you to our nine man Vuelta a España selection. Today we present to you our South-African rising star Reinardt Janse van Rensburg. This young talent from South Africa needed to lie about his age to ride his first cycling event when he was 10 years old as he was too young to participate. When he was 13 he got his first real racing bike for Christmas and from then on he was unstoppable.
