So they open their season by taking a 1-2 on the 50k Criterium at the start of the Tour Down Under. What will the mainstream sports press make of it I wonder?
Skinsuits FTW!
Skinsuits best suited to the job so they used them - f*** convention 🙂 I think they're going to shake things up regardless of how successful they actually are and it's great to see 🙂
A fairly brief video of the race:
Check out the average speed - nearly 50kph!
Good break by Lance and co as well and a great finish by Sky getting into the lead out train! 🙂
Good break by Lance or just well arranged PR for a race supporting a cancer charity? The finish looked hotly contested, mind.
Excellent news for the boys
Great start for the team- and one in the eye for the Aussies from the Kiwis.
Skinsuits are pretty common in crit-style races, especially in Northern Europe...
I just hope it's not a case of flying in spring, dying in summer..
