PETALING JAYA: He is not known as the Pocket Rocketman by his peers for nothing and Azizul Hasni Awang will be out to live up to the moniker again at the Asian Cycling Championships (ACC) starting in Kalimantan this weekend.
The 21-year-old Azizul will not just be defending his individual keirin and 200m sprint titles at the Asian meet as he has been entered for the team sprint event by coach John Beasley as well. For the team sprint, Azizul will be the starter followed by Mohd Edrus Yunos while Rizal Tisin will be the customary anchor rider in what is a repeat of their sensational silver medal performance at the ACC in Nara, Japan last year.
