After an eight-year pause the Australian decided to take part in the
great Italian tour and he is taking it very seriously… His target for
the new season is the first place in the Giro and good results in the
Tour de France.
Racing with the Professional Continental team BMC
Racing Team, the world champion has already done well in the Tour Down
Under and he is anticipating for more grand tours to come.
Despite his “bad” Tour de France last year, the rider finally
managed to place third in Vuelta and then a win in the International
Cycling Union (UCI) World Road Championships followed. This year he has
a double goal: Giro and Tour de France. Is it going to be easy? Off
course no, but as Evans said it is not “completely unconventional”. For
the moment he is waiting for more invitations to certain races such as
Tirreno-Adriatico, Criterium International and the Ardennes Classics La
Flθche Wallonne.
