Lance Armstrong has arrived in Adelaide, Australia, for the 2009 Tour Down Under and his official comeback to the sport of professional cycling.

The seven-times tour de France winner has already hit the roads training, and has now ditched the black LiveStrong kit in favour of his team Astana colours. It's an odd sight - a high profile American wearing the strip of an eastern European squad.

Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
