what the australian summer of cycling does well... and where it falls short - what is a smart board

Some aspects of the competition are better done in one place than elsewhere, and there is a lot to learn for the organizers and promoters of Australian bikes.
If you want to play-
Long scenes including fun tactics, attack moves, and situations where teams and riders are under great pressure, are less prestigious races offering the best viewing results.
The FedUni Road National Championship continues to host memorable events throughout the race and race.
The Jayco Herald Sun Tour lights up by attacking the car and contains a tough finish, with gravel climbing offering a huge viewing and featured break that actually has an impact on the results.
What do these competitions have in common? They all have a variety of teams, from the national team and the mainland to the World Tour team.
Of course, there is an imbalance in the team's talent, but what this imbalance causes is that smaller teams have to attack to beat the team with the best riders.
If I direct a friend to watch the Santos Tour below (TDU)
I will tell them to look at the last 15 minutes of each stage and not much else.
In the Ocean road Race at Cadel Evan until the last two Challambra rises, the day was barely bright, too late to see a meaningful split on the pitch.

Tour of the Jayco pioneer Sun.
The Sky team realized that they were unlikely to beat Michael Woods and Rich Porter in a direct battle and that they had to be creative.
I support adding this element to TDU and Cadel Evan's Ocean Road Race men's program.
The UCI rules prevent local continental teams from getting berths at World Tour events, but Professional Continental teams can be invited and problems can be solved in predictable matches.
These teams are more inclined to attack and make the most of the famous invitations and TV time they get.
However, the opposite is true for women racing.
In the summer, few domestic teams, even the national team, played in larger teams.
This is largely due to the quality gap between female World Tour players and domestic tour players.
Usually, there will be a rider on the local team who has the potential to take it with height
All the certified riders were there. in for her (
For example, in the case of Jaime Gunning and a dedicated women's racing car).
Whatever the reason it's Mitchelton
International Tour with Scott
Create the level team of the action in the competition.
Only when they feel they have a chance to win will they do so, so the game we got didn't happen before Mitchell ton --
Scott decided they would stamp the proceedings.
I'm all in favor of giving the domestic team a chance to play against the big team and make the local drivers the focus, but, that means giving yourself a chance to win something, instead of just rolling around on the back of peloton.
In this regard, the King of the mountain is TDU.
During the first world tour of the year, no other games were close to the festive atmosphere of Adelaide, and while the number of people on the side of the road has dropped significantly this year, the game itself can be said to be secondary, for those who like to ride bicycles, it's just a fun experience.
Other events do not know anything about this fact, and every major event includes organized mass participation that is adjacent to the main event.
Make TDU a must
Go activities are not organized rides, but in fact you can hop on any group of old bikes in less than an hour and ride the spectacular Adelaide Hills.
This is hard to replicate for other events, a product of decades of continuous competition that has become the primary festival of cycling, not just elite-level competition.
The best community engagement you see is when the event venue is held --
Local cyclists are known and close to the population center.
When the tour of the Herald Sun went to Arthur's Seat, or in the past few years, the Golden Lake, both of which were bike-riding magnets, the rider flocked to the side of the road.
When Churchill competed this year, few people were present in the race that was coming to an end.
Of course, the hub race based on a single location will be more successful in this regard than other races, and travel requirements are a major obstacle to bike travel.
At present, the Herald Sun Tour is the only non-hub race.
Nationals may show the biggest positive signs in recent growth.
New activities have been added to attract fans outside of the car, more racing activities across age groups and quasi-age groups
Increased participation in bike Sports, Buninyong Mountain ring road has now become a famous stadium, almost a must --Be a cyclist.
I personally had a lot of fun seeing Sarah Bryant and Michael Freiberg on the better stage
Well-known riders in cycling in Australia, but watching sports is only relevant to most people because it can tell stories that people understand.
Even casual bike enthusiasts understand the difference between rich Potter, Peter Sagan or Ilya Vivienne's victory when Nick White beats two other drivers under the age of 23
It tells a familiar story, and we see some established characters in the biggest game in the world.
Of course, the stars come to Australia at a normal level of 70 per cent, but the stars are important in determining the legitimacy of a game.
Alistair Donohoe insists on his fourth journey on the queen stage of the Herald's journey to the sun, if he doesn't stick to it in front of Michael Woods, that wouldn't have been so dramatic Kenny Ellis Songde and Lucas Hamilton, who will be there for a big tour this season.
Or the potential of Chris Harper or Jenna Merrick is not easy to achieve unless you have top standards --
The level driver was present.
I believe the biggest name will be paid here, but how much is a closely guarded secret.
Rich Potter has not been on the Herald's Sun tour since 2011, but has come to many competitions this year
To promote the incident, even a column named after him was published in The Herald Sun.
I suspect this is because he wants to play this year.
Peter Sagan can also say that he came out of the cabinet for TDU, not for Cadel, who will provide three-
The chances of winning the World Championship are much greater.
Cadel got its appeal from its stars and I doubt if they feel the need to pay the high amount
The file rider to appear.
Nationals suffer the most from lack of star power.
There is no Caleb Ewan for this year's standard, and there is no Richie Porte or Michael DoNews.
In this regard, it's not easy for Australia to ride a bike, you can't bring in foreign stars, and I don't think anyone would argue that doing so is a wise use of the budget.
The main pillars of the Australian cycling season are now good --
It has been established and it is difficult to see them displaced soon.
The lineup of the surrounding races is in an unstable position.
I didn't go to the Bay pier this year and it came back to the calendar a year after it was closed in 2018, but some sources told me --
Also observed through real-time streaming
It is not particularly well supported.
During the years leading up to the break, attendance dropped significantly, which also coincided with the first run of the Cadel Evans Great road race, which is now Gilon's premier event.
There's a warm place for this game.
For nationals, but with the standard of all the other major events in the summer and the appearance of short circuit races, this form feels a little tired.
The track and field exhibition during TDU was successful.
A large group of people have appeared competitive in these events, giving fans the opportunity to watch some of the best track and field athletes in the world and enjoy the games in which they are only in the Commonwealth or Olympic Games.
There are different forms of competition this year, unfortunately this is not publicly advertised, and the temperature of the day is over 40 degrees Celsius, is an absolute smelly guy.
The weather certainly had an impact on the reduced population and a slight increase in the evening, but the event has not yet found an opportunity to buy in the campaign --
Crazy Melbourne.
I think I'm a fanatic follower of the local race, but my colleagues in the media and I are completely blinded by the format changes and only find out when we show up and browse the technical guidelines.
This is a race with a positive impact, unlike the normal race track where a foothold can be found.
The organizers came up with the idea of changing the route, which would be a good idea, and the Albert Park track was not designed for the eye-catching racing car.
I took part in some of these activities.
I watched Andrew McCosker family group Phoenix Zwift cycle from its residence in Ballarat for a collective national, and then I saw some of the best local riders they launched in Adelaide in the 10 km event.
From the viewer's point of view, this is a very different event with no feeling of speed, positioning or bike handling.
Instead, it's all the effort, you can see it on the face of your competitors, up close and personal.
Without a commentator, I would be lost in what happened in the game.
Maybe the car needs some sort of isolation system because it's very confusing when watching the screen and trying to figure out who's racing, who's just riding on the community court
From here, the summer of the bike will last for a few weeks, six-
During the day and Melbourne to Warnambool are still in progress.
Perhaps these events can be a major part of Australia's summer calendar in the future.
If this is the case, they will learn well from the current events.
