There seems to be a few possibles although too early to tell. Flakemore, Power and I think Dennis will improve but by how much is the question. Meyer and Bobridge had huge wraps put on them without much success but that's not unusual, it happens to many riders.

As long as the riders that are discussed are not fawned over unjustifiably by people like Mike Tomalaris, I will support them.

True. Calvin Watson looks to have some promise as well. Tomo is not as irritating as he used to be I have to admit. He actually understands the sport better but he took his time.

It's good enough at .1 for now. Some WT teams will hang around after the TDU, some Pro Contis will have a go and the Aus and Asian Conti squads can still race too. If it gets classified any higher then it will have to sacrifice most of the regional squads.

Yes, we should not aim to have top level WT events as spectators would prefer not to watch the best riders compete.

So should this race be WT?

Knock it up to HC along with Herald Sun Tour I think. WT maybe not, although if they really want something to go in between P-N and TDU then why not? As for not being hard enough for WT, Vattenfall...

one WT race in Australia is enough

.HC for the other two would complete a nice little pro season

The dream would be for the Three Peaks Challenge to turn into a pro event.
