And Renshaw had it for the taking and didn't jump when it opened up for him.

Anyone know the last Australian to win a major international stage race, Cadel excepted?

It'd be nice. IIRC, someone (on Cycling Central???) had the conspiracy theory that he was never a Gerry Ryan acolyte (Jayco/AIS) and wasn't chased very hard by Orica-Greenedge.warthog1 wrote:Nice work Ritchie. Would seem to be our next GC hope after Cadel.

His time is pretty much over now but he was definately a shining hope... I remember watching him in the TDF the year he crashed out big time thinking he looked strong enough to win it that year. Somehow though I think knowing his slightly dubious history that might not have been such a bad thing... who knows.
Very nice win by RP though... not sure he will get much chance to go for the really big ones while at SKY. The next couple of years could be good for him I hope.

But as far as the elite level events go (Grand Tours or Tour de Romandie equivalent), based on a casual look, if it wasn't Cadel it was Phil Anderson back in the 80s.
This win by Richie is bigger than how the press has been reporting it!
