aw bugger. kept meaning to ask that...
presumably the Ad was made in Sydely.
and IF she is a pro-cyclist WTF was she doin wanderin around zombified in the local mall??? shouldnt she be lieing down, eating things handed to her without question, being filmed for yet another behind-the-scenes-docco,
OR SHE'S AN ACTRESS!
I'm betting the latter. having bought talent for photoshoots/commercials previously i can attest to what a major feckin pain in the **** permissions, copyrights, royalties, associated associations etc are and it's usually far easier/cheaper/faster to just hire 'talent' than someone 'talented'
speaking of which, anyone wanna buy my business? I've had enough of playing boss/employer. it sucks
I'll throw in a (broken) CF Bianchi frame

Yeah, if that's the criteria TimC could be professional!

Why? Medibank head office is Melbourne.flyingdutch said:
Thing that bugs me is that falling off a bike and the accident prone kid are more likely to be serviced through medicare. What has medibank private got to do with that?
Just got a letter from medibank saying premium going up again, as benefits drop further. That ads the last straw. Stuff 'em, I'm changing.

Hah, good luck. I changed for that reason and let's just say they're not
exactly helpful when it comes to leaving (further justifyign the
decision to do it).

My issue has been that if she's a professional cyclist, she's covered
under her team's insurance and wouldn't give a rat's **** about it.

Yeah, my HBA premium is going up also. Monny grabbing bastards, but
cheaper than paying an extra 1% Medicare 'levy'.

Just sent Medibank an email asking the question. Here's the response:
"Thank you for your enquiry. Medibank will endeavour to respond to your question within 14 business days."
Will let you know the answer to this pressing question.
Will also endeavour to find out why she doesn;t have ACF or BV insurance to cover any crashes.

Couldn't sit this one out...
I've just put in a call to head office in Melbourne,
The receptionist was astounded/bemused that we care so much about the
"professional" cyclists' identity and attempted to put me through to
the Marketing department.
Everyone's out at lunch it seems, so i got to listen to their catchy 'i
feel better now' muzak for a while, but
my number has been taken, will report back when and if I get a response
too.
