The Aussie Cup, finaly in Belgium! haha!
And the winner of this weekend is of course Chris Sutton (pic). He won in Kuurne, beating the other fast guys, Hutarovitch, Greipel and Farrar in a bunch kick. A surprise everybody says! Not for me tho. Didn't he win the G.P.Cholet 2006 beating Nico Eeckhout, not a slow one i would say. Another Sky rider who was in the picture the whole weekend (third in Ghent, just behind Langeveld and Flecha) was Matt Hayman. Matt scored only one point less then Chris.
And far away from the rain and cold, in South Africa, it was Fabio Calabria (Type 1) who took 13 points home and moved up to rank 30.

1. Matt Goss - 82 pts

This weekend we started also the women's Aussie Cup 2011.
One 1 days race (Omloop het Nieuwsblad) and one tour (Tour of New Zealand) finished on sunday.
Ruth Corset took over the lead of Alexis Rhodes. Alexis (national road champion) who didn't race in Kiwiland gathered her points in Qatar, while Ruth took no less then 32 points in New Zealand!
With the next races in Belgium, it will be hard to tell if some off the Aussie girls will take part of these competitions.
