George and Antonis

George Frangoulis, 41 years old, and Antonis Samoladas, 39 years old are the athletic couple of "1000 Dentra" team and they come from Thessalonica . Their characteristic is the resistance in uphill but they lack in technique, and for that reason their purpose of the training sessions was to improve in this area in order to be more competitive. Having the experience of Bike Odyssey 2013 year, this year aim even higher.
