SIMON GERRANS
On moving to BMC and riding for Richie Porte
CyclingTips, Matt de Neef, 31 Januari 2018
Simon Gerrans doesn’t give much away. A decade and a half in the sporting spotlight has taught him it’s best to say as much as he needs to, but not a whole lot more. Speaking over the phone from the Victorian seaside town of Torquay he’s polite, friendly but above all, professional.

I didn’t think it was physically possible to do what he did
Ride, Ride, 16 Januari 2016
Simon Gerrans is a two-time national road race champion and three time winner of the Tour Down Under title. He knows how to find form in January and he has hopes of another good showing in the Australian round of the WorldTour… but first he’s coming to terms with what he saw Jack Bobridge do in the nationals on Sunday. Rob Arnold spoke to the 35-year-old from Orica-GreenEdge to get his take on a the winning ride in Buninyong…

scicon news, Scicon Hollie, 26 April 2015
Simon Gerrans may have fallen into cycling by accident, but his success ever since has been the product of determination, and unwavering commitment. Now with a stage win in each Grand Tour -the only Australian to do so- and a coveted two day stint in the Tour de France yellow jersey, Gerrans is a bone fide Australian success story.

I’ll set my sights for a little bit later in the season.
Ride, Rob Arnold, 23 December 2014
Onto the trails of Mount Buller went the reigning national champion, Simon Gerrans. It was an afternoon training session along with a few locals… and then down he crashed. A broken collarbone means Orica-GreenEdge is looking at different options for January. A day after his surgery, Gerrans spoke to RIDE about the crash and his amended plans for the start of 2015.

Hip fractures, shorter seasons, Spring Classics and the Yates twins
Cyclingnews, Jono Lovelock, 24 Oktober 2014
Simon Gerrans is fully recovered from the hip fracture he incurred during the third stage of this year's Vuelta, an injury that later saw him withdraw from the race and put his World Title ambitions on the shelf for another year. With his 2014 season subsequently brought forward by a month he is now back training with renewed vigour, with an Ardennes Classic and a rainbow jersey standing as the remaining red rags to his bullish motivation. Gerrans has also been buoyed in recent weeks by the announcement that Orica GreenEdge have signed Simon and Adam Yates, Esteban Chaves and Caleb Ewan.

Il les a tous battus.
Velochrono, Nicolas Le Cheviller, 26 September 2014
Lundi, il était 18 heures lorsque l’avion de Benoît Nave se posait en provenance de Monaco. Le mentor de Simon Gerrans venait de superviser le dernier entraînement de son poulain, qui n’est autre que le favori des bookmakers en vue de la course en ligne des Mondiaux de Ponferrada. Dernière séance d’intensités élevées derrière scooter à quelques jours du jour J. Le coach prenait alors quelques minutes pour répondre à Velochrono.

I see some real nice opportunities in the first half of the race.
CyclingTips, Shane Stokes, 28 Juni 2014
Gerrans backed off again in order to peak for the Tour. While he had a quiet ride in the Critérium du Dauphiné, he is confident that he has timed things right and should be in very good condition for the Tour de France. He’s got big aims there.

Simon Gerrans on his Liège-Bastogne-Liège victory
Ride, Rob Arnold, 30 April 2014
On the night of his victory in the 100th edition of Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Simon Gerrans celebrated on the team bus and then jumped on a flight back to his home in Monaco. A mini off-season would start the next day. His Classics campaign for 2014 had a successful ending. But this is a rider who always seems to conjure another item to tick off his to-do list. Monument won, now it’s time to prepare for Le Tour… this is the sentiment of a pragmatist. On the Tuesday morning after ‘La Doyenne‘ he was looking after his kids and he put 15 minutes aside to talk about what had recently happened.

Simon Gerrans : « On est une bande d'amis... »
Cyclisme Actu, Sébastien Warègne, 1 Juli 2012
Au tour du Tour ! Vainqueur d'un excellent début de saison avec entre autre sa victoire sur Milan-San Remo, l'Australien Simon Gerrans aborde désormais un autre gros morceau de la saison, le Tour de France, rien que ça ! Avec toute son équipe Orica-GreenEDGE, il a tout juste de grandes ambitions, en particulier et tout simplement, la gagne du maillot vert pour sa formation. Reste que le champion d'Australie ne compte pas jouer uniquement l'équipier modèle de Matt Goss avec ses qualités de puncheurs. Il devrait avoir des occasions de s'exprimer tout au long des trois semaines et pourquoi pas dès ce dimanche à l'occasion de la 1ère étape de ce Tour avec l'arrivée en montée à Seraing. Sauf que pour le moment, les jambes ne sont pas forcément encore là selon ses dires et comme il a pu le confier à Cyclism'Actu. Info ou intox ? Va-t-il falloir se montrer patient pour voir Simon Gerrans en action et pour aider Matt Goss à décrocher la tunique si enviée. Entretien.
