2011 Tour de France Winner Cadel Evans – back in 1994

Posted by Caleb Smith on Tuesday July 26 2011

“So Cadel Evans has won the 2011 Tour de France; the guy totally deserves it. Back in 1994 I shot at the UCI World MTB Cup in Cairns, Australia. A young guy came out of nowhere and got 5th against the top pros, it was a huge effort. You could see then there was something special about the guy. He eventually went on to win two MTB World Cup overalls, a world road title and now the Yellow Jersey in France.” Graeme Murray via graememurray.blogspot.com

Tim really…. He was just a kid! 16 and super talented….

Why knock him??? Not Euro or American?

Just checking his palmares against yours??? Hmmm and his wife is hotter too!

FYI, CE’s result on that day is actually the reason why there are five podium spots in mtb WC’s.
