By David Hunter Time Trial Day The San Luis TT is another regular in the Tour de San Luis, however, the organisers have decided to change the route in 2015. It’s a fairly standard, out and back course, with a couple of corners. Note the big long straight, along Av. Eva Peron, this allow the big…

By David Hunter Stage 2 and we head to Stirling. A regular venue for the TDU and one of my favourite stage finishes. This is a tough stage and can be won by a sprinter, a puncheur or a breakaway specialist.
By David Hunter Stage 2 sees the riders travel 185.3km from La Punta to Mirador de Potrero. Followers of the race will be well aware of this climb, a regular feature of the race.
By David Hunter After a long winter, the World Tour gets back up and running in Adelaide. As everyone knows, defending champion Simon Gerrans is out with injury. This is a blow to the fans but a massive bonus for the other riders. With Gerro away, it certainly opens the door to a number of…

By David Hunter Cycling returns to Argentina and San Luis, as the season kicks off. A lot of riders love starting their season here as there isn’t the panic of achieving World Tour points. Life in San Luis is tranquillo! The riders can begin the season here, without huge expectations. Most are just happy to…
By David Hunter Let’s get the party started! We start with a 51km dash around the streets of Adelaide. 30 laps of the 1.7km circuit and watch as the pace increases every time around the circuit. It’s sad to say it, but this year we don’t have Andre Greipel. Mr TDU is staying in Europe…

By David Hunter It’s nice to come across a rider that breaks the mould. In British sport, it’s very unusual to come across young people who move into Europe, at an early age. There are very few footballers doing this and only a handful of cyclists. The Yates twins cheated and joined an English speaking…
By David Hunter 2015 is a big year in the life of Lotto. They have ended their long running sponsorship with Belisol and have joined up with Soudal, a Belgian producer of silicon.
