 Michael Matthews in time trial mode Canberra teenager, Michael Matthews, has taken the lead in the Tour of Japan after winning the opening 2.65km time trial in Daisen Park in Sakai. Matthews leads after win in first stage of Tour of JapanThe 19 year old Team Jayco Skins rider clocked a time of 3:14.31 to finish 5.95 seconds ahead of second placed Hong Kong rider King Lok Cheung with Japan's Kazuhiro Mori third in 3:21.08. In the 2009 race Matthews was fourth on three stages and was pleased to notch up a win on the opening day of this year's event. "Good to get on the podium here finally," said Matthews. "It was like big square basically," said Matthews of the course. "The back straight was probably the hardest point and we had a bit of a head wind but (it was) pretty flat and then a little kick up at the end, a little hill at the finish. It was quite hard." Matthews says he wasn't sure of his form lining up in the pre-event criterium which acted as a warm up for the first stage time trial after far from ideal training conditions at the team's European base in Varese, Italy. "The last couple of days in Italy it's been raining so we haven't done much training just doing rollers and ergo so I wasn't too excited about this tour to be honest," he said. "We haven't been doing much and we couldn't get out on the road and the flights as well sort of knocked us around a bit. "But we went for a ride yesterday and felt all right, nothing crash hot, but the warm up this morning in the crit (helped) and then I felt good for the time trial so it worked out really well." The win has put Matthews in the leader's jersey heading into the 121.2km Stage 2 at Nara and he says the team hopes to keep him in the lead up until Stage 5 which is a gut wrenching 11.4km climb up Mt Fuji which boasts a ten percent gradient. "I'll probably get raked up Fuji so probably won't hold it after that stage because I'm not really a 'big bird' climber," said Matthews. "I can sort of climb but not with the little guys so I'll try and see how I go. If I'm not going that well I'll just sit up and hopefully get some more stage wins the next two days after that." The next best of the Team Jayco Skins riders in today's opening stage was Richard Lang in 13th place at 12.68 seconds with Nick Aitken 17th at 14.10 seconds and Patrick Lane 36th, 18.16 seconds slower than Matthews. The Tour of Japan is a seven stage race which finished in Tokyo on 23 May. Nick Aitken, Pat Lane, Richard Lang and Michael Matthews are racing for Team Jayco Skins. | |||||||||||
 Tour of Chongming Island World CupThe climax of the racing on Chongming Island was today with the running of the World Cup. It was a big day with Ina Teutenberg winning for HTC-Columbia, the team winning the teams event and me getting to watch the race from the HTC team car which was number 1 in the convoy. The day started with an opening ceremony of Olympic proportions in the Chongming stadium. The teams were presented and then there were a few speeches followed by top class entertainment for about 30 minutes. Dancers, drum ensembles, kung fu performers, acrobats and more it was awesome. It was a close run thing though we were locked in the stadium until the official party left so it was a rush to get to the start and take up my position in the team car.
I did get there on time and I asked what my job was. I was told politely but firmly, sit there and be quiet. Early in the race Ellen van Dijk had a puncture, see photo. Oliver the HTC mechanic had it changed quickly and Ellen was back and pedaling towards the bunch. Ronny, the team DS, was driving like a Nascar driver through the convoy to get back into position. One of the Moto commissaries thought that we shouldn't have been motor pacing Ellen back to the bunch, Ronny would argue we weren't but I might have a different interpretation, so tried to push the car back into the convoy and separate Ellen from our rear bumper. Gutsy play Ronny was pretty aggressive and I could see us on the wrong side of some Chinese bars, the steel not alcoholic type. Things settled down after that and the racing got interesting. The KOM points in the race were to be determined on the Bridge that goes to the island. HTC had decided that the bridge would be the decisive part of the race and they got to the front and hammered. The peloton blew to bits and there were about 25 girls left with all of the HTC team there and most of Cervelo plus a Korean girl who looks to be a talent. There was then a series of attacks culminating in Judith Arndt and Sarah Duster going off the front. They maintained a lead of around 30 seconds until about 20k to go when it started to come down rapidly and by about 6 k to go it was clear that it was going to be a bunch sprint.
I didn’t get to see the sprint as the team cars were directed off the course at 500m to go. It was a very close sprint and it took some time to announce the winner the two protagonists Ina Teutenberg (HTC) and Kirsten Wild (Cervelo) didn't know who had won. This was the same situation as in the third stage of the Tour, these two ladies are so close to each other in speed. Apparently the way the final sprint turned out HTC could almost have gone 1,2,3,4. After the 1000m to go banner there was a left turn into the finish. Chloe, Adrie Visser and Ellen van Dijk all HTC were on the front and they went through the corner so fast that Ina had to let a gap open up, she wasn't game to go through the corner as fast as these girls did. They all went for it, Chloe wound on her sprint from 500 out and started to die at 200 out, Ellen then powered on but the main sprinters caught them at 150 out. The result 1. Teutenberg, 2. Wild, 3. Gilmore (Australia) and all the girls finished high enough for HTC to win the team competition.
A great day of racing, if you ever get the opportunity to travel in a team car behind a race it is highly recommended, a very exciting way to watch the sport. It was also a fantastic week for me as I got to see Chloe and her team up close. They all seem to get on well and genuinely seem to enjoy each other's company. There are plenty of laughs but when it comes time to race they get serious. The team was under a lot of pressure this week as management perceived that they had not delivered enough wins. They delivered three wins but the racing was so close a matter of millimeters could easily have seen it be three seconds.

 L-R Allison Rice, Emily Roper, Elissa Wundersitz Allison Rice rides to Silver in Pursuit, Michael Rice shares Bronze2010 Australian Junior Track Cycling Championships Allison Rice rides to Silver in the U17 Women’s Pursuit while her brother Michael Rice shares Bronze in the U15 men Scratch race on the final Day of competition at the 2010 Junior Track Championships.
Allison Rice had been itching to get on the track at the National Championships, hampered by a niggling hamstring that decided to make it’s self know during pre championship training, Team management decided to pull Allison from all events apart from her favored Pursuit which was on the last day of competition. It is hard to say if watching her ACT Team mates setting personal best times nearly every time they hit the track or the fact that her brother had set 2 State records so far was a factor in Allison nearly bursting at the seams by the time she faced the starter on Saturday morning, but Allison ripped apart the track to post a scorching 2000mtr pursuit time of 2:39.241 (State Record) to qualify 2nd just half a second from the top qualifier Emily Roper from Queensland.
In the final against Emily, Allison rode perfectly to schedule just falling short with Emily taking the Gold and Allison taking home the Silver. Outstanding time and excellent result.
Not to be outdone Michael Rice rode a tactically perfect Scratch race to win the Bronze medal in a tie with Daniel Fitter from QLD, given the electronic timing goes down to 1,000th of a second it is a rare thing not to be able to split placings. Michael had a very successful Championships finishing in the top 10 in all his events and setting a few State records on the way.
Lucy Kirk, Maddy Marshall and Emily Clark all had excellent rides over the 3 days of competition with all 3 setting personal best times and learning a lot along the way. Lucy came very close in the Pursuit only 1/10th of a second away from contesting for the Bronze medal. Lucy will be one of the favorites in 2011 for the Pursuit. All 3 are 1st Year U17’s and their experience this year will see them all come back next year much better riders.
Our Juniors now have to refocus for the road season and we look forward to following their expoloits in the coming months.
Thanks from the Team go to Head Coach Michael Aisbitt who guided the team not only at the championships but in the months leading into the competition, Ed Rice for managing the Team, Adrian Marshall and Megan McAuliffe for all the help they provided. | |||||||||||
 Chloe Hosking HTC-Columbia's Chloe Hosking has finished third in a sprint finish of the Merced Downtown criterium in CaliforniaHTC-Columbia's Chloe Hosking has finished third in a sprint finish of the Merced Downtown criterium in California.
Her team mate Ina Yoko-Teutenberg won the bunch sprint for the second year running with American Shelley Evans second. "The girls raced really well to control the race. Kim, Chloe and Evelyn were in every break and did the perfect lead out over the last few laps," said Teutenberg. "It's also nice that Chloe was able to get on the podium after leading me out." After a serious crash with three laps remaining, the race was neutralized for 15 minutes. When the officials restarted the race, they increased the lap count to six. HTC-Columbia controlled the finish. On the last lap Anderson was setting the pace with Teutenberg on her wheel. Teutenberg let a gap open up forcing other teams to chase. Anderson was caught just before the last corner and Hosking set Teutenberg up for the sprint. "It was a good introduction to US racing. I was happy to be able to help Ina in the lead-out and hold on for third place," said 19 year old Hosking. Team Director Rene Wenzel was happy with the team's second win in two days. "It was a pleasure to see the girls in action today. They all did their job perfectly and when it finishes with a win and a third place, one can only be happy." Tomorrow the women line up for the Foothills Road Race. | |||||||||||
 Stuart Shaw sprints home to win final stage in Langkawi Stu Shaw wins stage 7 in Tour de LangkawiAustralian Stuart Shaw has taken out the final stage of the 2010 Tour de Langkawi in Malaysia.
Shaw, who rides for Drapac-Porsche, outsprinted Spaniard Vidal Celis (Footon-Servetto) and Austrian René Haselbacher (Vorarlberg-Corratec) at the end of the 133.7km stage from Kulala Kubu Baru to Dataran Merdeka in a time of 3hr01min00sec. “I just had my appendix out and had surgery. I had three months off my bike and this is my first race in five months,” said a delighted Shaw who had been performing domestique duties during the course of the race. “The team sent me here, which was nice, to come and help Peter [McDonald] win the King of the Mountain and to help Adiq Othman. “I just came here to help the team and every day I got a little bit stronger. Today I felt good near the sprint. So I had a bit of a go. It was a nice result.” The Tour title was won by Venezuela's Jose Rujano (ISD-Neri) who cemented the victory with a dominant display on the penultimate Genting Highlands mountain stage. McDonald knew he had to beat Rujano by at least one point to secure victory in the classification, and had strong team support in the first KOM prime at Batu Arang (km 41.3). He was first to the top, with his team-mate David Pell second and Rujano only third which gave McDonald the lead in the climber's category. “It has been a long week, with lots of racing. There were little climbs to try to get a point here, get a point there,” McDonald explained. “Yesterday I was a bit disappointed to miss out on a few opportunities leading up to the big climb [Genting Highlands]. I finished fourth up the big climb and to not actually have the jersey [was frustrating]….I needed one more point. “Today worked out all right with the team. They did a good job to lead me out for the climb. They were very aggressive in the corners leading up to it, and that helped us to make the gap. I was able to get the sprint.” McDonald also placed well overall at the end of the seven stage 1013km tour finishing fourth at 3min21sec. The Tour also went well for Team Jayco-Skins with Michael Matthews claiming two stage wins. | |||||||||||
 Matthews placed second on Stage 4 Matthews 2nd in stage 4 - Tour de Langkawi
Team Jayco Skins' Michael Matthews has taken over the lead in the points classification after stage four of the Tour de Langkawi in Malaysia.
The 19 year old from Canberra finished second on today's 163 kilometre stage from Mersing to Parit Sulong. Japanese rider Taiji Nishitani (Asian Racing Team) claimed the win with Footon Servetto's Vidal Celis (ESP) in third place. "At the bridge I was actually 20th wheel so I wasn't actually going to go for the sprint at the end as I wasn't feeling too good coming into it – it was way too dodgy," said Matthews. " Matthews picked up 14 points at the finish line and earlier in the stage collected five points for winning the first intermediate sprint of the day at Jemaluang (15km mark). His rival for the points jersey, Malaysian Anuar Manan (Geumsan Ginseng Asia), managed only a third and a fourth place in the next two sprints and was sixth at the finish which wan't enough to keep Matthews at bay. Jayco Skins Richard Lang helped the cause by pipping Manan in the third sprint to prevent him claiming an extra point. The tactic was also aimed at keeping Matthews fresh for the finish and it paid off. "I kind of set myself up well as we went into the first sprint today, but I got rolled in the second one and there was a breakaway for the third one, so we were tied on points," said Matthews. "I just had to try and beat this guy [Anuar Manan] in the finish to get the jersey." Matthews now has 72 points, three ahead of Manan. He is also still sitting in fourth place overall, 2min39sec behind Tour leader Germany's Tobias Erler (Tabriz Petrochemical). Australian David Pell (Drapac-Porsche) is in second overall at five seconds and South Africa's Jay Thomson is seven seconds off the lead in third. Pell's team mate Peter McDonald grabbed another point in the King of the Mountain competition and remains in the polka dot climber's jersey. | |||||||||||
 Michael Matthews sprints to victory in Malaysia Matthews wins opening stage in Tour de Langkawi
Team Jayco Skins is off to a flying start in the 2010 Tour de Langkawi in Malaysia with Michael Matthews claiming the opening stage.
Matthews won a bunch sprint ahead of Spaniard Vidal Cells (Footon Servetto) with Ruslan Tieubayev (KAZ) third at the end of the 174.5 kilometre stage from Kota Bharu to Kuala Berang. "It’s unbelievable," said Matthews of his first professional race win. "I came here wanting to win but not expecting it, so it’s really good. "It was a bit messy at the finish," said Matthews. "We had a lead out going from about 20km out but it got messy with guys getting into it and swamping us so the guys got me to about five to go and then I said not to worry and I just followed wheels from then on. "I just made sure I stayed in the top ten and followed guys who were going off the front then the Footon guy (Cells) hit out pretty early so I had something to run at, and it gave me something to chase," said Matthews who despite the win says it was one of his toughest days in the saddle. "It was boiling hot and humid - ridiculous conditions," he explained. "Felt like I was riding in a sauna, couldn't breath and really wasn't having much fun until the end. Crossing the line first though was heaps of fun." Matthews now leads the tour by a narrow four second margin heading into stage 2, a 182.3km ride from Kuala Terengganu to Chukai. "The plan tomorrow is go in as we did today and make sure we've got guys in every move," he said. "If we can get our guys in a break it will take the pressure of the boys of having to set the pace and then we can aim for another sprint at the end." Matthews says he may also contest a couple of the intermediate sprints if the stage allows it. "I might try and pick up a few bonus seconds that way to give me a bit more of a cushion on the lead so I can maybe hold it until we hit the Genting Highliands climb on Saturday," said Matthews. Fellow Australian Peter McDonald (Drapac Porsche) is sitting fifth overall after an aggressive performance on Stage 1. McDonald shrugged off the sweltering conditions to go on the attack with the Indonesian Rastra Patria Dinawan (Polygon Sweet Nice). They surged clear 54 kilometres into the stage and while Patria Dinawan was dropped soon afterwards, McDonald continued on alone and scooped the day’s third intermediate sprint, at Sungai Tong (km 128.3), plus the second King of the Mountain (KOM) prime, the category 4 ascent at Sg Tong (km132.3). He built a maximum lead of over nine minutes, yet was caught 25 kilometres from the line. He ended the day level on mountains points with the first KOM winner, Roman Zhiyentayev (Kazakhstan), who nabbed the category 4 prime at the large bridge of Tok Bali [km 40.5], plus the winner of the third climbing prime (Kg Chapu, km 151.8), Adiq Othman of Drapac Porsche. The race judges awarded the Australian the jersey, and he vowed to do his best to defend it throughout the race. “I wasn’t really looking to stay away until the end, I thought it was a bit out of my grasp,” he admitted afterwards. “I just wanted to pick up the sprint and KOM primes. I didn’t actually know there was one more KOM to come towards the end, maybe I might have pushed a bit more to try to take that, but it all worked out fine because I have the jersey anyway. “The jersey is a goal now. I will just try to pick up points along the way, if I can. They tend to work out more by sprints, so you have to look for your team to help you out and keep you up near the front when it comes to the KOM.” He said that he hoped to ride well on the savage Genting Highlands climb on Saturday, and that his priority after using so much energy today was to try to recover and keep a bit for that always-decisive stage of the Tour de Langkawi. The Tour de Langkawi runs from 1 to 7 March. | |||||||||||

First Aid - Cycling Australia Requirements for Coaches
First Aid
Cycling Australia Requirements for Coaches
In consultation with the Australian Sports Commission, BMX Australia, MTB Australia and the State/Territory Cycling Organisations, the Cycling Australia Coaching Commission has passed the decision that as of the 1st January 2010, a First Aid qualification will be a mandatory pre-requisite for all coaches wishing to attend a coach training program, at all levels, across all disciplines.
The aim is to ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of coaches and athletes alike and it is already a mandatory pre-requisite to hold a first aid qualification before attending the Level 1 BMX and Level 1 MTB NCAS Coach Training Programs.
First Aid as a requirement for existing accredited coaches will be introduced gradually over the next 15 months and will become compulsory for all coaches as of 1st January 2011.
Cycling Australia believes that it is an essential safety requirement for all coaches to possess the knowledge and skills to be able to deal with an accident or emergency in the coaching setting. Cycling Australia has always highly recommended that coaches obtain a first aid qualification, and from 1st January 2010 this will be a compulsory requirement for coach accreditation.
For further details on the type of first aid qualification required, please see the Frequently Asked Questions page in the Coaching Section of the Cycling Australia website (www.cycling.org.au/coaching) or the BMX Australia website (www.bmxaustralia.com.au).
Please note: If you would like to organise First Aid training for a group of attendees in conjunction with a cycling coach training program (e.g. in the lead-up to a CycleSkill Coach Training Program), Cycling Australia is aiming to work with Sports Medicine Australia in organising one-day First Aid training at a reduced cost. | |||||||||||
