Malaysia's national cycling federation (MNCF) plan to enter a team in International Cycling Union (UCI) tours from 2011 in a bid to improve the country's flagging road racers.
"I see the setting up of the continental team as very important for road cyclists because they are lagging far behind track cyclists, who are already world class," MNCF President Abu Samah Wahab told the national news agency Bernama on Tuesday.
Wahab said that many details of the team had already been agreed including some aspects of sponsorship, although no information was given.
Azizulhasni Awang, a silver medallist in the men's sprint at the 2009 UCI World Championships, heads the Malaysian track team but the country has struggled to produce world class road cyclists.
