Some of the Savings & Loans team’s riders have jetted off across the Tasman to ride in the Tour of Southland next week. The tour is in its 51st year and is one of the most picturesque rides in the southern hemisphere. But don’t worry, there’s plenty of hard climbs and long days in the saddle during the tour!
We’ve teamed up with a New Zealand information management company, Gen-i, for the tour, and will feature some new riders – Victorians Steven Robb and Nick Walker, brother of pro riders Will and Johnnie. An old hand of the Savings & Loans team, Will Dickeson, will also compete in the tour, fresh from a strong performance in the Jayco Herald Sun Tour.
Rounding out the Savings & Loans/Gen-i team for the Tour of Southland will be Kiwi Graeme Stone and Western Australian Nathan Jones, two guys with plenty of European riding experience.
I won’t be heading over to New Zealand for the tour, but I’ll keep you updated with how things pan out.
For more details, have a look at the Tour of Southland website.
If you’re in Adelaide this weekend, you might see a couple of the guys from the Savings & Loans team (including myself) racing against some very unconventional looking bikes as part of the World Future Cycle Challenge. We’re involved in the last two stage of the event, from Jamestown through to Adelaide. Have a look at the Challenge website for more information.
Good riding,
Steve
