Callum Ferguson

Is the first time you have had support from the Dave Rayner Fund?
 Yes it is.
What is your cycling history ?
 I have always been around a bike. Every year when we went to the alps on holiday me and my grandad used to descent down to the bakery to get breakfast. He took me to a taster session at Manchester velodrome, them build me a black Ribble, I loved riding it, then I pestered my Mom to take me to Halesowen cycling club. Then after my first session I was hooked.
What team are you joining in 2015? Tell us a bit about your team.
Zappis racing team. We live, eat, sleep and train together from early January all through the season until October. We are trained and mentored by our DS Ex Italian Professional Flavio Zappi. We live in Portugal and Italy for a lot of the season then we float around.
Do they have they a website that we can link to?
 Yes, the best one is the Facebook page, if you search Zappis racing team. Flavio posts videos and updates live from our races and training.
What is your race programme looking like?
 Well we start the season off racing in Spain and Portugal, then we race in Italy for a few weeks then returning to the UK for the Rutland Classic, then back to Italy for a couple of months with Belgium at the end with the nationals at the end of June, then the big Valle d aosta stage race with international races in Belgium and France with ending the season in Italy. So a lot of UCI races.
