TDU naming-rights sponsorship could be scuppered by Adelaide City Council

“… once the ban came into effect, the TDU would not be able to place advertising for gas giant Santos in the C*D as part of the event but that can be overturned by the state government.”

Random share | Riding Holiday suggestion, Wiradjuri country... central west NSW.

This is a video that concludes a travel series from a few years ago. It's the end of a journey that lasted a week and gave me an entirely new perspective of cycling... in a place that, in relative terms, is close by but it felt oh-so new, different, exciting even.

McNulty, Matthews, MVDP – medallists in a world championship road race for the ages...

“What can we say about the Australian world championship maestro Michael Matthews who seemingly rose from the dead – both in his career and in this race – and managed to slip into the chase group with the favourites? Once he found himself in elite company, he remained there, steadfast and determined as he’s been since that formidable victory in Geelong all those years ago when he was still an Espoir.
