‘He’d always smoke me’ – Pithie and Fisher-Black reunite at Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe after growing up racing each other

Laurence Pithie and Finn Fisher-Black will start their time at Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe together at the Tour Down Under in January, after joining from Groupama-FDJ and UAE Team Emirates respectively in the Summer. 

The Kiwi pair have raced previously as teammates on the home nation’s squad at the New Zealand Cycle Classic stage race back in 2021, however, being just seven months apart in age, they’ve raced more frequently as rivals.
