Gifted young climber Archie Ryan heads to Australia on Saturday as he prepares to make his professional debut in mid-January. The Irish rider has travelled early in advance of the Santos Tour Down Under, which runs from January 16th to 21st.
"I am super, super excited about the race, it should be fun," said Ryan ahead of his departure. Like many of the participants, he will likely ride the preceding event on January 13th, the Down Under Classic criterium in Adelaide.
Ryan joins another talented Irish under-23 rider, Darren Rafferty, as new additions to the EF Education-EasyPost squad. A third Irishman, Ben Healy, is already part of the team.

My crashes over time have yielded a broken neck, broken back, broken left leg, crush pelvis, three broken collarbones, broken right arm and I've even lost a rib.
