News for November 25, 1997


Sad Passing of Great Australian rider

Bill Lawrie, from Queensland passed away yesterday after being told some weeks ago that he had a terminal asbestos-related illness. The 62-year old died with his family (spouse and two adult children) at his home on Queensland's Sunshine Coast.

Bill Lawrie was a tall, skinny rider who won the Sun Tour in Victoria in 1963, rode the 1966 Tour de France and was the British road Champion in 1969. He also combined with another great Australian Ron Baensch in the European 6-day races. Another close mate and great cyclist Bob Panter described him in the local press today as "one of nature's gentlemen. He was an astute tactician and a tough competitor, but off the bike he was a humble and modest man."

Vale Bill!

Hein Verbruggen talks

UCI-president Hein Verbruggen said last Friday, during a meeting with Aigcp (Teams and directors), that he will try to increase the number of riders per team from 22 to 25 next year. Those teams who ask for the number of 25 should have at least 3 neo-professionals in their team!

Tour du Faso Burkina - Burma 2.5

This Tour was scheduled to start on November 30, but appears to have rescheduled. Anyway, the Belgian rider Mark Laureys is second in the ranking. He was first in the prologue and could defend his jersey in the first stages, till their team-director decided not to ride after Ernest Zongo from Burkina Faso, who won the stage with an advantage of 15 minutes.
