There is no money in Australian cycling until you get overseas.

Our pros work in poorly paying bike shops and are given a frame or bike each year as sponsorship until they get a reputation they can take overseas.

Where is the money causing all this corruption coming from?

OK a few individuals made a private decision, does that make every Australian dirty?

We have 364 days of warm weather. Is it any suprise we produce good athletes?

Considering the data you provided Brizza - 526 USA tested - 522 AUS tested. Whats Americas population in relation to ours?

About 14:1. Now come on, we DON'T have a pro competiton and money is SCARCE for any aspiring pro.

Sure we produce our bunch of idiots, but we're doing a lot.

I totally agree with you Brizza.
