Harrif hails Azizul’s unbelievable staying power

The two veterans: Azizulhasni Awang (left) and Harrif Saleh hail from Terengganu and rose through the ranks together during their early days.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s road cycling veteran Harrif Saleh has described Azizulhasni Awang’s remarkable longevity in track cycling as something that almost defies logic.

Azizul stunned a strong field led by Britain’s sprint world record holder Matthew Richardson to win the keirin at the Perth leg of the UCI Track World Cup last week.
