Very sour end to 2023 but they’re off and running in Australia to start the season.
Caleb Ewan and Ruby Roseman-Gannon win the AUS Crit Championships.
Grace Brown wins her 4th ITT AUS title, Luke Plapp bags his 2nd.

Talk of Red Bull trying to buy a controlling stake in Bora Hansgrohe
And the new team kits are starting to trickle out.

Remco looks pretty swish in his Belgium jersey with the rainbow bands
Belgium shoes as well!

It’s the same as last year and I really wasn’t a fan when they unveiled it but that Lidl Trek kit has grown on me loads and I think it might be one of the best (non EF) kits of the era.

Forgot that there’s a different reason to include Movistar

Belgium shoes: paging thewarn
Jai Hindley looks like he’s jacking up in that photo. Can’t believe that got past the PR team.
I can never be arsed with the Tour Down Under. Don’t know why
Last CX of the season with MvdP, WvA and Pidders today and my word. The sheer power of van der Poel is unbelievable

Wout isn’t looking so good
Or he’s just measuring it perfectly
!!!
Was that right at the end that he stacked it??
Kinda surprising result.
Yeah, like 30 seconds from the end. Gutted to lose your glasses like that.
Now removed from their socials but the organisers of E3 decide that it’s still 1973 and that it’s totally fine to use blatant homophobia to promote their race.
The race is usually a cracker and doesn’t need this absolute bullshit.
jesus fucking christ
they do this every fucking year!

100 days until the Giro starts pals!
How long until the real season starts? Missing Carlton greatly.
