Medibank Private Ad

OK, if you've been watching the Commie Games, you'd have seen the ad for
Medibank Private with a blonde chick stating:

"I'm a professional cyclist and I have lots of crashes..."

Anyone know who this is? It's been bugging me.....

aw bugger. kept meaning to ask that...

presumably the Ad was made in Sydely.

and IF she is a pro-cyclist WTF was she doin wanderin around zombified
in the local mall??? shouldnt she be lieing down, eating things handed
to her without question, being filmed for yet another
behind-the-scenes-docco,

OR SHE'S AN ACTRESS!

I'm betting the latter. having bought talent for
photoshoots/commercials previously i can attest to what a major feckin
pain in the arse permissions, copyrights, royalties, associated
associations etc are and it's usually far easier/cheaper/faster to just
hire 'talent' than someone 'talented'

speaking of which, anyone wanna buy my business? I've had enough of
playing boss/employer. it sucks
I'll throw in a (broken) CF Bianchi frame

Yeah, if that's the criteria TimC could be professional!

If he gets paid to ride, doesn't that mean he is professional already?
I'm waiting for him to show up on a BR with a brand new pro
machine/soloist/c50/etcetc that he wrote off on his tax as a "training
bike"

Why? Medibank head office is Melbourne.

Thing that bugs me is that falling off a bike and the accident prone
kid are more likely to be serviced through medicare. What has medibank
private got to do with that?

Just got a letter from medibank saying premium going up again, as
benefits drop further. That ads the last straw. Stuff 'em, I'm
changing.

Once you have changed you can sing "I feel better now"

Hah, good luck. I changed for that reason and let's just say they're not
exactly helpful when it comes to leaving (further justifyign the
decision to do it).
