Having one wrong person on the newsgroup is an accident, having two is a
tragedy.

He was born in Katherine in the Northern Territory. You can't get much
more Aussie than that. Red Australian dust is in his blood.

(I don't normally reply to trolls but because Cadel is such a wonderful
hero I'll make an exception today.)

Jeez, yet another blood-doping accusation.

I must confess I wasn't born here (or yesterday) and I still have a
discernable Dutch accent. I do have an Australian passport and have been an
Australian citizen longer than most people on this group.

You are a citizen of the country whose passport you hold, but you will
always have some affection and ties to the country of your birth. And
there's nothing wrong with that.

Well agreed, unless the country of your birth is France.

Hmm. He's a great cyclist, obviously, but I reserve that sort of praise for
someone who doesn't whine about his team while they're busting their nuts
for him in the mountains. Let's face it - we wouldn't be going ape****
about him if he were from anywhere else.

They're just jealous that once again a Victorian shows up the other states
and territories. NT born, Victorian bred. Good onya Cadel.

Actually he lived in NSW for a while. Attended school for about 5
years in a regional town, left in Yr 7 IIRC (so naturally the local
rag has claimed him as a local lad made good)

It was the hills around Arthurs Creek in Victoria that made him the champion
he is today. He was a local mountain-bike legend before he got onto the
racers. Katherine, NT and regional NSW can put in their claims but they
amount to zero in regards to where he developed his profession.
