Whoop! Whoop! Go Cadel, but can you work on your salute?

Cadel Evans wins the Fleche Wallonne in the World Champion’s jersey! (Head to minute 9 for the finish).

I am very happy that he is continuing the transition from whiner to attacker! And even sometimes WINNER!

But, can he improve his victory salute?

Crossing the finish line at the World Championships, with about a 30 second gap and he blows a kiss to his wife? Not how it’s done…

Thanks to Melbourne’s Cycling Tips Blog which has cataloged most of professional cycling’s salutations. I have picked a few that might work well for Evans next time:

the classic
the fist pump
thank the lord!
tears of joy
the boss

  1. 1. “Tears of joy” is lame
    2. If you look closely at the YouTube video there is a good little Aussie point (Take that!) before a great little Aussie thumbs up
    3. And finally what’s wrong with blowing kisses at your wife?
