Cadel wears the Yellow
Cadel Evans became the fifth Australian to claim the Tour de France leader’s yellow jersey after finishing eighth in the 10th stage in the Pyrenees. It’s a proud day (well early morning for us in Oz) to see this humble Australian take the Yellow Jersey.
Cadel is back on his Winning Ways
As the huge Cadel fan that I am… if following Cadel was a religion I would be the Pope! This time Cadel is riding in the “Coppi e Bartali” in Italy and has taken out Stage 3 and now leading the GC. The 189km from “Scandiano to Pavullo” stage has seen Cadel rise into the lead and with two stages remaining it might be a small victory in the lead up to Le Tour.
All Hail Cadel.
As predicted, it looks like Stage 4 of the Paris Nice has played out to be the stage to watch. This morning it’s all about Cadel Evans on cyclingnews.com and other related sites. I had hoped but didn’t post it in my Paris Nice 2008 that Cadel would take the line honours on the stage from Montélimar to Station du Mont Serein Mont Ventoux.
It turns out that the Mont Ventoux climb is the first big test for the climbers in the 2008 season. It’s looking good for Cadel having tested his legs and taking the days win.
