Goldcross Colours At Le Tour 2011

Was the appearance of Goldcross colours at the Tour de France a positive omen for Cadel Evans?

If there was any year to be at the tour, it was this year to see our Aussie boy Cadel win the GC. Five dedicated customers from Goldcross Cycles’ Knox store shadowed the race circuit, kitted out in Goldcross colours.

The above shot was taken as Rob, Gary, Russell, John and Hans battled the gruelling Col du Tourmalet. At 2,115 m / 6,939 ft this is the highest road in the central Pyrenees.

The boys took on all the climbs on this year’s tour and were in France for six weeks. We’re told they are passionate roadies and come along to most of the GX-sponsored Ventou challenge series rides, like the Lake Mountain challenge and Whittlesea challenge.

A big shout out to the lads for wearing the GX kit as well. You guys rock and we sincerely hoped you loved every second of your experience.
