    Canberra Cyclist Robbie Williams dies during a bunch ride

    Very ordinary indeed......Particularly given the bloke hasn't raced for years. Also no idea what the OP intended with the highlights in his/her quote?

    Jayco al-'Ula and its GreenEdge predecessors

    thats a big signing, i am surprised O'Grady is coming across, i guess he was true to his word about always wanting to ride on an Australian team, and the financial arrangement was workable..

    Impact of Cadel win on Australian cycling

    Dave, if those comments shocked you its fair to say you havent been following public sentiment on this mate, its ALWAYS been that way. There are the few vocal idiots and then most people are OK. I think things are improving but by a question of degrees only.

    Great "unknown" climbs

    My favourite climb is Mt Buffalo in Victoria, Australia. Its one i am sure that Hrotha would enjoy being long and steady. 20.9klms at 5.0% Road is in very good shape and its not a pass, so there is very little traffic. Its a great climb.

    Impact of Cadel win on Australian cycling

    are we still going to get hecklers on the road, in arguments at dinner parties etc ? yes, of course. Is this a step in the right direction, and will this success and the publicity surrounding it be good for the sport in Oz? Absolutely. If everyone knew a cyclist, family member, friend...

    Memorable TDF Comments from Cycling News Forum Wood Ducks

    A key difference for me this year was that Evans hadn't burnt all his matches before the tour. He was underdone at the dauphine and for me that was a great sign. I was a bit dubious and thought he was top 5 but he was going about things the right way and giving himself every chance.
