BICISPORT To THE TUMUT CYCLE CLASSIC on SUNDAY 10 JANUARY
A little gem of a cyclosportive not that far from Sydney over great roads with some stunning scenery thrown in for good measure. There are 12 BiciSport riders going to Tumut and full details are listed in the Special Events section of this website. Hope to see you there.
BiciSport peloton to the 2019 Tumut Classic (the 2020 edition was cancelled due to the bushfires).
The 2021 Tumut cyclosportive starts & finishes in central Tumut and the loop to/from Goobarragandra (along the river) is one very pretty road. Feel free to join the 12 BiciSport team mates currently doing the Tumut Classic
Holdsworth Campagnolo Professional Cycling Team (UK) … back to the mother country !
The original Holdsworth Campagnolo team ran from 1967-78 but in more recent years another Holdsworth team has been rebirthed. Team colours were orange & blue on a matching orange Holdsworth frameset with chrome front forks on Campagnolo components. Team manager was Roy Thame.
Team riders had some real talent in Bob Addy (rode the 1968 Tour de France in the UK National Team), Les West (4th in the 1970 World Pro Road Race Championships), Colin Lewis, Keith Lambert & Phil Bayton. That was a very good team lineup with support riders in the caliber of Nigel Dean, Geoff Wiles & Dave Nie. The team dominated the UK pro cycling scene for over 10 years.
