The 10 Hour Cyclist Diaries
During the 2016 / 2017 criterium season in Melbourne Tommy Nankervis won 25 A grade races. It’s a feat that’s hard to fathom given the peripheral race day elements that can go against the grain of consistency.

My goal was to win a B grade criterium and get that promotion to A grade I had been pondering for years. After a few months of training with structure (for the first...

The 10 Hour Cyclist Diaries
Tommy Nankervis has a passion for cycling. You can hear it in his voice and you can see it in his pedaling. He’s also one of the most consistent performers you’ll ever witness. This criterium season alone - in Melbourne’s distinguished criterium scene - he won 13 A grade races, was part of 17 wins, and finished out of the money twice. An astonishing feat, particularly considering it’s a criterium; a race that incorporates high caliber contenders, inconsistent conditions, crashes, and multiple breakaway winners.
