I realised I didnt word it correctly, it was more pointed at your joke about prime estate and anonymous's comments, I think we can all agree they mixed quite well with those big teams, finishing 2nd australian team and 6th team overall. I dont think PE are the ones anon should be feeling sorry for

I don't think you got what I was saying Alberto. I was saying that they ARE some big pro outfits and wasn't taking the piss (not sure why you misunderstood that) - all except for Prime Estate, which I added in there because I know the guys. However PE did awesome out there and impressed me with what they did.

Even though you were trying to take the piss cyclingtips your big PRO outfits like Garmin Slipstream, Bissell Pro Cycling, Rock Racing, Rapha Condor, Fly V and Prime Estate were the six best ranked teams, apart from Rock Racing that didnt finish with enough riders.

I hope you both have a little think about that

There is always lots of negative about PE and some is deserved for their attitude. But you can't knock the guy for his effort in giving riders a go. It's up to the riders from there.

But cycling at sponsorship level is also about a positive image and this needs to be remembered. It is always about perception. Bad press runs much faster than good press.

Go JoJo, I will have to speak to Jen and Gez, so we can get a cheer squad for you! Go Prime Real Estate! Why are Aussies always ready to criticize instead of supporting people having a go?

Keep up the good work Teaks! No one is as passionate about cycling as you man. I admire any one who has such commitment.

You have given some lucky young local riders a fantastic opportunity to experience the Pro circuit and who knows? It's such a shame some Australians are such knockers.

GO PRIME ESTATE!!!! Look out for the girls in the Honda Hybird Women's Herald Sun Tour starting Thurs and finishing with the crit in Lygon St with the guys. Go the girls, it isn't all about the boys!!!

Teakes has put blood sweat and tears to get the PE team in 2009 HST!! It is awesome for Australian cycling and an amazing opportunity for those of us that get to be a part of it.

Teakle is putting his own hard earned into young Aussie riders. Good on him. Bad form Anon.

This sport is hard enough for young riders in this country, anywhere in fact even with the current level of support. Any sponsor who wants to plow $ into any young and aspiring cyclist in this country is not only helping the immediate generation but those to follow. Those bagging PE should be reminded about how the competitive scene was like in the 80s and 90s......little or nothing!

Well done btw WW

Go DL :)!!

Yep I'm with Teaks on this. His commitment to cycling, mens and womens teams is fantastic. Go Prime Estate, GO McCann.

Great to see a local tr=eam throw there hat into the ring
gotta hand to teaks and the Primeestate Team for giving it a go .
It takes heaps of effort and commitment to do this and for every knocker there is 1000 supporters.

Awesome idea! Give those of us stuck at our desks a chance to experience 'what might have been...'
Me to Boss - Can I PLEASE leave early to go ride?
Boss to Me - I'm too busy to go, so if I can't go, neither can you!
