Schleck deserves his own moment
Now that the dust has settled regarding the immediate cycling future of Alberto Contador, perhaps it's time to reflect on where Andy Schleck stands in all of this.
Still on a high from the success of the national road titles and phenomenal Tour Down Under Mike Tomalaris wonders where the buzz is for the Cycling Australia Track National Championships.
A lightning three-day visit by Tour de France race director Christian Prudhomme to South Australia this week has further guaranteed the future of the Tour Down Under.
Don't bounce Buninyong
If it's OK for a Leopard to change its spots, then perhaps it's fine for this hard-headed TV guy to change his mind.
Those in the know shouldn’t be surprised that Cadel Evans commandingly leads every media poll I’ve checked for “Australia’s sports performance of the year.”
There’s no doubt interest has never been as high for the announcement of the elite men’s squad that will tackle the course in Copenhagen, Denmark on Sunday, September 25.
Will Cadel's glow linger?
I've never seen anything quite like it before and never thought I ever would in 20 years of covering cycling as a journalist and presenter for SBS.

Judging by the amount of traffic to our new Cycling Central website it seems the Tour de ranceanticipation from SBS viewers is greater than ever before.
