Zakkari Dempster

“My strength: Going Fast! I hope.”

Like many Australian riders, Zak has a background in track racing. He is an allrounder who can be relied on for many different tasks. While riding his first Grand Tour at the Vuelta a España in 2013, he managed to place tenth at the 12th stage and finished the three-week race as a great support for the team. He proved his consistency with five more top ten places and had a very successful season overall in his first year at NetApp-Endura.
