	Cycling Australia Media Update
		Australia had hoped to wrap up the Championships with another medal in the men's road race but it was not to be despite the best laid plans of the nine member strong Australian line up.
		Cycling Australia's Professional Coordinator who was the director of the team for the race admits the new international qualification rules that saw the leading nation rider numbers drop from twelve to nine had an impact in today's race.
		We are able to say we have one of the world's best sprinters in Robbie, supported by some of the other world's best sprinters in Baden Cooke and Allan Davis along with some of the best lead out men in the world so we can't hide behind the rest of the countries.

		Now in their 80th year, the World Championships are held over five days, incorporating five age and gender divisions, with two races (an individual time trial and a road race) per category.
		The proximity of the Games to the World Championships (less than two weeks between the time trials) meant that many riders will not be doing both, some by choice and some by accident.
		Irrespective of the absentees, the World Championships are the most prestigious one-day race on the calendar, and there are plenty of competitors keen to wear the rainbow jersey for a year.

		For 132.5 kilometres of the 132.6 kilometre race, Australia's Oenone Wood went from contender to likely winner, but a bout of cramp saw her finish sixth in the women's road race at the world road cycling championships.
		With 100 metres to ride, more than a dozen riders were strung out across the wide boulevard finish in Salzburg, and Wood's noted sprinting prowess was expected to be to her benefit as she rode up to the wheel of the leader.
		With world number one Cooke having spent plenty of energy in that mini-break, it appeared Wood the other highly-regarded sprinter in the pack - was a strong contender for gold as they straightened up for the line but it was not to be.

		Team CSC’s Jakob Piil electrified the road cycling world championships Sunday, September 25, with a string of exciting attacks and came home with a well-deserved sixth place in the hard-fought 273-kilometer race in Madrid.
		His attack created an 11-man breakaway that looked to have a chance to stay away for victory, but team politics kept several key members from contributing and the move was reeled in with one lap to go.
		At the one-day world championships, riders compete under their respective national teams instead of their professional trade teams, and several of the riders in the Piil group were waiting for other designated team leaders.
