Training camp in South Australia
Pre-season training camp in South part of Australia passed great.
Training camp by itself wasn't so hard. It was just to get some kilometers before TdU.
First day :
First day was preparing one. Everone was riding in really slow pace,chatting. It was really strange, i was in really good shape,tried to make some jokes with my new mates. It was great,great expirience,indeed!
Second day :
Second day was a bit harder,we decided to try with some hills today. Still , really slow pace,its just unbeliavable to be part of this team. This guys are awesomeeeeeeee!!!
Third day:
Imo, most exciting day. This was also recon of first stage of TdU. Deal was to ride with a bit higher pace,but i decided to fool my teammates and attack. After i got few meters i shouted loudly: "I will be legend of this one,noone of you can stand up by me!". They laughed hardly and attacked. At the end of the day it was great humour and way to get some kilometers before first race of this season.

It's more often that I discover things very late because I just don't pay attention to it

I always scan through things, unless it's very appealing
Now I can tell you that I did fully read the GreenEdge News report

fcancellara, you're bright
Seems like a nice training camp, but they could've had more work done, though |

National Championships
At the start of season we have 2 NCs. Australian and New Zealands.
At the start i want to say how i spent time while most of my teammates was racing.
This is it:
RRs
Both races are won in breakaway. In both breakaways there was our riders. I decided to take few screenshots on my new LG UltraHD TV.
Australian:
Clarke was one of the riders in breakaway. All riders out of breakaway withdrawaled. Finished about 30-40 minutes behind breakaway group. Clarke attacked on last hill and got it!
Rank | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Simon Clarke | Orica - GreenEdge | 5h31'16 | 2 | Sam Witmitz | Team Raleigh | + 55 | 3 | Matthew Lloyd | Lampre - Merida | s.t. | 4 | Glenn O'Shea | An Post - Chainreaction | s.t. | 5 | Malcom Rudolph | Drapac Cycling | s.t. |
New Zealandian:
Same situation here,breakaway got 30 minutes in front of peloton. My teammate Bewley was doing great but after 3rd position in ITT,he couldn't get better here too. He,once again,got 3rd position!
Rank | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Michael Torckler | Bissell Cycling | 5h21'25 | 2 | Tom Scully | Team Raleigh | + 28 | 3 | Sam Bewley | Orica - GreenEdge | s.t. | 4 | Aaron Gate | An Post - Chainreaction | + 1'10 | 5 | Shem Rodger | Node 4 - Giordana Racing | s.t. |
ITTs:
Not so much to say,pretty boring. Cameron Meyer and Sam Bewley both got 3rd positions.
