Some other Aussies are also showing well at Vuelta, ToB and subsequent other smaller events.
Should be a cracker - I can't wait to watch it live
Any idea of what time it will start and finish ?

The bit that it's now $165 or people forked out $300. I'd say the latter.jules21 wrote:i'd write to them and ask for a rebate, that's outrageousRustyNail wrote:Not happy, after paying my $300 to "ride the worlds" , that the price is now $165 !!!!
Mind you, I can understand the upset. But paying $300 to ride a public road ?

Just to stick it to the Euro's!
My second option would be any other Aussie winning.

that's what i'd call a moral equivalence argument. if i'd bought a TV that was discounted soon after, i'd feel ripped off by the retailer for happily taking my cash. they're not breaking any laws, but they're not looking out for me either. there's no law against asking for a rebate - they don't have to provide it either, but they would be aware that goodwill towards their 'brand' is at stake.im_no_pro wrote:Really??

Probably check out the website.SLH wrote:G'day chaps and chapettes. I've managed to get time off and will be in Melb for the event. I'll be based in the city so need some advice on where best spots to view (yet grab a beer or three) and parking options (not driver...as per beer) etc for Sunday 3rd. Any advice appreciated.
When you say city...do you mean Geelong or Melbourne?

Sorry mean Melbourne. The website is ok but I'm looking for local knowledge as that's usually more reliable.Parker wrote:Probably check out the website.SLH wrote:G'day chaps and chapettes.

Freire for the win [the end]
Evans; marked, injured earlier, but now (according to his blog) feeling okay, and has a great team in support.
Gilbert
Gerrans - great rider, great team in support.
Hushovd (can do lots of things well and still not a bad sprinter).
Can I have a sixth? Fabian.... but he's low on support.
Of course, since I have no idea what I'm talking about I'll no doubt be completely wrong, but since when has that stopped anyone?

All the marked men seem to struggle to get away in the WC. I am going for a wildcard - Carlos Barredo.Chris249 wrote:rustychisel wrote:Do we have a forum poll on this, it's game on.

Still about 30 riders to run though.
EDIT:
Luke crossed in a time of 42:52:19, 2min 11s in front of his nearest rival and currently in first place..
Still more riders to come though.
