Tommy Nankervis
Quite possibly the fastest kid to come out of Australia since Baden Cooke
Tommy Nankervis is undoubtedly one of the more entertaining riders on the Competitive Cyclist Pro Cycling Team. The 29-year-old Aussie started racing on the track when he was 13, eventually transferring his skills to the road. Not surprisingly, Tommy has a wicked sprint and is often the wheel to grab in the last 500 meters.
Tommy spent the 2009 season in Belgium racing with Cinelli-Down Under, and his previous pro teams include DLP Racing/Toshiba and Jittery Joes. Quite possibly the fastest kid to come out of Australia since Baden Cooke, Tommy is only getting stronger, faster and more experienced – adding the perfect blend of charisma and top-end speed to the Competitive Cyclist Pro Cycling Team.
