Eritrean cyclist's hopes for Tour de France

In just a few week's the world's most prestigious cycling race, the Tour De France, will get under way.

For the first time, there will be a cycling team from Africa competing at the event.

MTN Qhubeka have announced their 11-man shortlist for Le Tour, and remarkably it includes three riders from Eritrea - a country punching above its weight in the sport.

Natanael Berhane is one of them. He spoke to the BBC about how he became a professional.
