From the SBS Cycling Central website - "Australian WorldTour squad GreenEDGE has released a statement to the media explaining that it intends to announce a title sponsor for the team on Tuesday, May 1 in Melbourne".

I always wondered if Australia was going to have a WorldTour team, who would be the main sponsor - QANTAS, BHP, WESTPAC? and I guess my question will be answered on Tuesday. I was thinking that the company should have a presence in Europe, or going to have one.

Who do you think would be an appropriate Australian sponsor - Barbecues Galore, XXXX, Vegemite, Mortein? Or are they not going to be Australian??

Do their corporate colours have to be GREEN???

Sorry Mark, you said coffee. Hudsons and Gloria Jeans don't sell that, despite what some people might think.

I thought the only way to be reasonably sure you would get good coffee is to roast your own.

Thats not coffee, thats... err ... muddy water, same goes for Cibo. 

Besides Gloria Jeans fund Hillsong church, so avoid them at all costs unless you're a brainwashed ... person.

Oh, I beg to differ, cibo roast their own and make top quality produce, they are good friends of mine and have seen their operation on north east rd, top notch!

As far as the others go, it's barely passed as mud even! Rather chew my old tubes than drink their coffee!

Espresso only of course! Lol
Since when is boost juice healthy??? Lol

It's got to be a big company, something recognized but sadly, they keep closing or selling out!
Something like qantas be good!

Isnt it funny how you never see any cycling teams sponsored by pharmaceutical companies??

Omega-Pharma ( Omega Pharma - Lotto ) are pharmaceutical company.
Also the Amgen Tour of California was always a little contentious, as Amgen are the manufacturer of EPO....

Lol I didn't know that about Amgen... hilarious!!

I stand corrected then....

And there's Team Type 1 - Sanofi.

BtW - Some talk of Jacobs Creek being the sponsor

If I had bottomless pockets I'd be sponsoring Greenedge. Of course the Scotts would have to go and theyd be riding Bianchi 928's with matching lycra. Pantani would have a big smile on his face.

Rumour has it they are a Chinese tech company - Huawei?

I would love to see them junk the Scotts, and start riding "Flying Pigeon" bicycles!
