I tried to offer some help but they refused to race in jerseys printed with my face and "hippy's faster than me" written on it. There's just no helping some people.

Isn't it a natural consequence of Australia's appalling attitude towards cyclists? If the media treat them as second class citizens then it becomes a very hard sell to the size of company you need to attract to sponsor a WT team.

One of the most interesting and well publicised teams in the peloton continue to struggle with sponsorship. The mining bucks ran out which sees Orica exit leaving Gerry Ryan funding the gap out of his own pocket.
That’s not going to last beyond 2019, so something has to give.
