Hello, my name is Entjol. I’m 32 years old. I’m from Lushnja, Albania. My passion for cycling started 10 years ago. After I left my hometown volleyball team, transfer to the Capital city of Tirana to study Architecture and Urban planning. I purchase my first Mountain Bike, started commuting and began to love biking, exploring the countryside, and meeting new people.

Feeling my body and vision getting vivid, i began to read about stamina and performance in cycling. Got a steel road bike, second-hand lycra clothing, a helmet and clipless pedals & shoes for long rides. Training like a pro for 3 years fell in love with triathlon, trail, running and competing.

Cycling for me is a benchmark for lifestyle standards. All of my life is sport-oriented. My parents and friends support me and we have a great sport-loving neighbourhood and hope to build a cycling community and be blessed with a local road and mtb cycling club & team. And with all my experience build a system to recompense the old forgotten sport cycling culture in my little town.
