I think I over rated him at the time and expected too much to soon, but one of my mates commented to me the day that “you know, Cadel is one of the greats now, all he needs is a Classic to top it off” and this was from a died in the blood Lance fan, (gee and I thought he had no critical judgement capabilities what so ever). I must admit I was more than a bit disappointed with his public personality meltdowns and demeanour and went off the boil on him, but if I was in a similar public spotlight I would be found more than wanting and have no friend’s, groupies or employers what so ever, fortunately I just limit my irritating diatribes and opinionated piss takes to antagonising Cosmo and his readers. Cadel does a good job of it all and all, more human and more is capable than the rest of us wheel turners. And for an Ausi, well that’s more than you can expect under the circumstances.
