The Daily Tour The genius of the Tour Down Under is that it is based out of one location - Adelaide, South Australia. Sure, many of the world’s best cyclists are here to race, but that is not what makes this event fantastic. Atmosphere is what makes the Tour Down Under special and that is created by the people who visit the event. It cannot be bought but it’s here. The locals, the people from regional areas, interstate and international visitors create the atmosphere. And that is what makes the event. The Daily Tour - photography from around the race, capturing some of this atmosphere. It’s not a visitors or cyclists guide to the Tour Down Under, it’s a snapshot looking at what is going on in Adelaide and the surrounding regions. This includes the regions, iconic Adelaide and race KOM climbs, around the cafes and some pro chasing. People on bikes. Published daily from Friday 17 January for 10 issues, you might get your photo in it. Follow on Facebook and Twitter. Drink water. Hope the heatwave goes. Enjoy this small piece of the Tour Down Under. And if you couldn’t make it to Adelaide, just pretend you’re here....... Bigguy thedailytour2014@gmail.com

Welcome to my Adelaide.

Saturday 18 January 2014


Adelaide is my Aussie summer home, my cycling home and my training ground for Europe. Born and bred in Sydney the sea change at 26 years of age was a calculated decision to become a world class athlete. Adelaide was my Launchpad – A quieter city, less expensive and a gateway to relentless traffic free terrain of the Adelaide hills, McLaren Vale and the Barossa which soon became my workplace toward European success. The Adelaide cycling community have been an incredibly important part of my development as an athlete humbly receiving support from the South Australian Institute of Sport, local produce suppliers, bike shops, gyms and of course local coffee shops! I still choose to reside here in Summer months while I prepare for Europe and remain adamant it is one of the best cycling cities in the world! Rachel Neylan www.rachelneylan.com

How to get the most out of your riding / training: Nutrition tips for the everyday cyclist Alan McCubbin – SDA Advanced Sports Dietitian, Next Level Nutrition

Sports nutrition is often thought of as something Click to that elite athletes pay close attention to, but not read story something that should concern the average cyclist. But no matter what level of riding you do, it’s likely that some adjustments in how you eat may make you faster or stronger on the bike, and get through your rides with plenty of energy. Here’s a few quick nutrition tips to make the most out of your cycling.

Getting a better return for your training investment. Stephen Lane – Exercise Physiologist, HPTek

It is no secret that cycling is an ideal way to improve both health and fitness. For the individual with a competitive streak, cycling can quickly become an addictive past time. Even if you are too busy to devote as much time to training as you would like, the following principles can help you improve. Remember though, you only get out what you put in. It is unrealistic to expect someone on 5 hrs a week to improve more than someone training for 10 hrs so making the most out of the time you have is critical. Click to read story

How to improve your cycling Written by Jennifer Schrader, Inspire Yoga Therapy

What can you do to improve your cycling experience when you are not an elite rider with a barrage of trainers and others supporting you, but more of a parent/partner/worker who simply loves cycling and wants to improve their riding experiences?
