THREE ONLY! Cadel Evans produced the ride of his career, claiming an historic victory at the Tour de France, one of the world's toughest sporting events. Cadel Evans conjured one of Australia's greatest sporting achievements after claiming the yellow jersey in the Tour de France.

The victory makes the 34-year-old the oldest winner of the Tour in the 88 years since Henri Pelissier finished on top in 1923. Such has been the dominance of Europeans at the Tour, Evans is only the third champion to have come from outside the continent. The weight of the achievement must be considered up there with the nation's finest sporting moments such as Australia II winning the 1983 America's Cup in New York.

It completes a remarkable journey after growing up in the Northern Territory. Evans moved to Victoria in his teenage years and made his name as a mountain biker before transferring his talents to the road. After being less than a minute away in 2007 and 2008 from capturing cycling's holy grail. In 2009, he became the first Australian to win the men's road race world title. He changed teams in late 2009 and went to BMC, a fractured elbow from a crash at last year's Tour ruined his chances of challenging the leaders. On this year's tour, he had been happy to mark his time, with his spirited pursuits of lead groups in the final two mountain stages proving pivotal to his success. In the last time trial (Stage 20), Evans started the day trailing Andy Schleck by 57 seconds. The Australian produced a masterful performance in the 42.5km time trial in and around Grenoble to finish the race leading the tour by one minute and 34 seconds from Andy Schleck (Leopard-Trek) and by 2:30 from Schleck's elder brother Frank. Only four times in the past 50 years had anyone come from behind to take the tour lead in the final time trial.

"Really, I can't quite believe it," said Evans, who was quick to share the plaudits with the BMC team which, to a man, has supported his campaign relentlessly in what has been the most unforgiving race in years. "I rode the best time trial I could. Every day, we rode the best we could. Every day, the team did 99.9 percent, if not 100 percent. I had a couple of off days, a couple moments of bad luck. But we just kept to our plan and every day we kept working," Evans said.
