however, without meaning to belittle these great achievements, i find the media's coverage frustrating. they love headlines like "aussie world champ!" for obscure stuff like the omnium. the uninformed would believe this was a huge triumph, while ignoring gossy's win at MSR - which frankly dwarfs most of the world championship track titles for status - probably assuming it was a local race against some italians. is it too much to ask for sports editors to have a clue about what they're reporting on?

For an absolute chnage, the Adelaide Advertiser actually had an article on Gossy's MSR win, but bugger all about the track successes, which is odd , as some of the guys come from SA - Bobridge, Durbridge - something about -idges ?

Michael Freiberg won the most gruelling event the Omnium and is an absolute freak!! In the last kilometre time trial he needed a top 9 finish and results to go his way and he got there in 6th and a 4 point win overall.
I came across his website to see what he is about and it is fantastic
http://www.michaelfreiberg.com/, i also came across a video of the time trial, http://www.michaelfreiberg.com/2011/03/ ... sentation/
