About

Australia's top professional club ORICA-GreenEdge will make a rare North American appearance at the Amgen Tour of California. Featuring several former junior world champions and Australian national champions, ORICA boasts several of the world's top sprinters including Baden Cooke, Matthew Goss, Leigh Howard and up and comer Sam Bewley. Bewley and Howard are expected for this year's Amgen Tour of California. Former Tour de France sprint points winner Stuart O'Grady remains as a guiding force at age 39 while Luke Drubridge provides the future of Aussie racing. The one thing you can expect from ORICA-GreenEdge is that will compete, especially for stage wins, noting the fighting spirit prevalent within the team. ORICA-GreenEdge is the first Aussie team to become a Tour de France entrant.
