Product Description

The competitive nature of Australian athletes on the world's sporting stage is legendary. Their commitment, talent and sportsmanship are internationally renowned and on the gruelling roads of the Tour de France, the Australian cyclists are no different.

The Tour de France made its debut in 1903 and over 100 years and 93 editions later, the race has become the most prestigious and historic cycling event in the world with the largest and most coveted prize money on offer in its sport.

Australians have a long history on the Tour de France, dating back to 1914 when the first Australian and English speaking cyclists, Duncan Don' Kirkham and Iddo Snowy' Munro, made their Tour debut.

Nearly 70 years later modern-day pioneer, Phil Anderson made his first Tour appearance in 1981 and became the first non-European to wear the leaders yellow jersey, further breaking down the cultural barriers and paving the way for future Australian cyclists in Europe.

Australians have made a great impact on Europe's pro-circuit, winning numerous Tour stages and wearing the various coloured jerseys. However, an Australian has yet to walk away from the three week race with the famous winner's yellow jersey.

Aussie Onslaught: 25 Years of Le Tour' celebrates the Australian cyclists and their success on Tour since the early 1980s.

Featuring: Phil Anderson / Neil Stephens / Stuart O'Grady / Bradley McGee / Baden Cooke / Robbie McEwen
