Lancashire-born pro cyclist Ian Bibby has got 2017 – and his new career with JLT-Condor – off to a winning start after taking advantage of a crash on the last corner to win the opening race of the Bay Cycling Classic in Geelong, Australia.
Orica-Scott had managed the race throughout to set up Caleb Ewan for the sprint, but he and other riders aiming to contest the win were ruled out of contention as a result of the late crash.
Former NFTO rider Bibby, who had been leading out team mate Brenton Jones, profited from the confusion to make a burst for the line and take victory from Jesse Kerrison of IsoWhey Sports-SwissWellness.
The 30-year-old rider from Preston, quoted on the team's website, said afterwards: “We were working for Brenton to be honest. did a good turn for Brenton, we got him in a good position and I sat up and there was only six or seven left [in the final lap].
“And then they all went really hot into that corner and they all went down. I thought ‘best get my head down’. It was a bit of luck — it’s a shame they all crashed but I suppose that’s bike racing,” he added.

A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
