Former top Victorian cyclist Spencer Stevens passed away earlier this week, aged 83. Spencer was a member of a highly successful cycling family, with his father and two elder brothers all reaching great heights. Spencer won Tasmania’s most prestigious track event, the Latrobe Wheelrace in 1945, just two days after his 22nd birthday.

Rider Diary: Joel Pearson…Racking up the wins in France
August 31, 2007
Hey everyone,
I scored my 5th win of the season on Monday in the Trophee Avon Moros. The race was blown to pieces because of the wind and we came into the finish with around 10 riders in the bunch. My team mate gave me a perfect lead out in the last couple of k’s to take it out. After this stage I over took the yellow jersey as well as the green.

Results: Tour of the Murray River, Stage 8, Vic (TC)
August 30, 2007
Full results, report & photos
The stage win may have eluded him but Queensland’s Cameron Hughes was the big mover in yesterday’s eighth stage of the Fishers IGA Tour of the Murray River. Hughes, a winner of the 1999 Tour of Sunraysia – which is a forerunner of the Tour of the Murray River – is only on his second trip to the Riverland district and obviously has a liking for the area.
Hughes was third in the Mildura Kermesse stage over 66 kilometres, finishing behind winner Sean Finning (Victoria) and former New Zealand rider Miles Watson, who is now based in Melbourne and riding for the Specialized team. Hughes jumped from more than a minute behind in 10th place to fifth overall and cut his deficit to 37 seconds to leader Peter McDonald with five stages still to be raced.

Results: FNWTR week 11, The Fat-Mans Wheelrace, NSW (Track)
August 27, 2007The Big man came out to play on Friday for the much anticipated Peter Bundy Cycles Fat-Mans Wheelrace. Rider’s handicaps were determined primarily by the competitor’s weight with a small consideration for racing division.
The first order of business was the weigh-in. To qualify for the event you must weigh more than I do. The scary thing is that I weighed in at 95.1kg which ruled out over 90% of all competitors. The first big shock and embarrassment for me, was when big man Jason Roberts pulled up short on the weigh-in. Jason who has a leg diameter equal to that of the average women’s waist tilted the scales at a measly 93.4kg, which instantly meant that one of the top favourites would not be starting the race.
