Sorry for the riders, as DS takes credit

Sydney Masters cyclist Paul W was holidaying Italy in good company and eagerly followed our efforts.  Here posing for us with Danilo Di Luca and wife .  "... Great news re tour of Tahiti - must be the Director Sportif!!!!" was the comment.   Also "... with Matteo Rabbotini, winner of mountains classification in Giro." Feel good Marcus?

Wednesday, July 25, 2012

Hi Everyone,
We are on the eve of traveling to Tahiti for the18th Tour de L'Amitie.
Can't believe time has finally come to leave this 2012 winter for some warmer climes.

A big thank you to Eugen for setting up the Blog.
Hopefully we can all contribute a bit and let everyone know about or Tour experience.

Today Callum Fagg arrived from Tasmania and has made it to Coniston before our early morning trip to Sydney airport.

I wish everyone on Both Australian teams all the best and that our sponsors Lan Installations, Pacific plumbing, Three Threes Condiments - Koenig Expander Schiltec for there support this year.
The team kits have come up really well and the team looks forward to wearing the kit on the podium when possible. 

regards
Danny
Tour organiser
