Dear Rouleurs,
Alas I’ve become very time poor in the downhill run to Christmas. So this post is a cut paste of an article from the Cycling Australia website. Once again, as cycling is such a highly visible sport in the eye in the of the average punter…NOT, they would have missed Cycling Australia’s Gala Awards night held a few weeks ago on the evening of 18th November.
There were many winners on the night..apparently, but the one that stood out for me was Mathew Hayman.
Canberra’s Mathew Hayman scooped the Jayco 2016 Australian Cyclist of the Year Awards winning three major awards in front of 400 of cycling’s elite at the star studded gala dinner in Melbourne on Friday night.
Hayman was awarded the prestigious Sir Hubert ‘Oppy’ Opperman Medal & Trophy after being named the 2016 Australian Cyclist of the Year.
The 38-year-old Hayman took home the Male Road Cyclist of the Year Award, with his much celebrated victory at the Paris-Roubaix in May also earning him the adoration of thousands of fans as they voted him to the Subaru People’s Choice Award win.
This is were the direct <</stolen text>> ends. This guy is a complete legend.
Until next time,
Marv
