I dunno, her right leg looks fairly well extended? Back is pretty flat.

Either way it must work for her, I think that photo was taken during a winning solo break.

Gorilla, I was only joking, but if I had a chance I will show her how it is done 8)
On a serious note, I admire anyone who races like that. I am old enough to be her much older sister so no I would never beat her.
:D

Another gold for AC, this time in the teams. And allmost better than gold they beat the kiwi's :mrgreen: Also beat their time from last year.

Just between Goss,Porte and Cure theres plenty to look forward to from Tasmanian cyclists. Plus our local guys like Ben Grenda and Nathan Earle. Not bad for a little pissant backwater :lol:

Anyway, congrats AC!


ps: Your terrible Apple :P

Nah unfortunately that was her older sister Sarah. She crashed during that Geelong tour, broken wrist,collarbone,ribs and punctured lung!! Poor thing, shes pretty banged up but apparently "ok". It was in todays Mercury. I hope she recovers well, shes only 19 so hopefully will get back ok.

They said a photographer stepped out in front of them to take a shot after the finish and about 12 of them came down doing 60kph.

Amy also won another gold in the scratch race!! That girl is a freakin gun 8) :lol:

cheers
