Subject: Has anyone seen Peter O'Neil lately?
It's not far off from the races he cooked up for the National Cycle League

From cyclingnews.com:

Sydney's Dunc Gray criterium circuit, adjacent to the city's Olympic
velodrome, is set to bring together the speed of track competition combined
with the team tactics of a road race in the inaugural Gladiator Criterium
taking place on Sunday, ch 11. Organised by the Lidcombe Auburn Cycle
Club, the event will feature up to 12 teams of four riders, one of whom must
be withdrawn every 15 minutes, until just one member of each team remains to
fight out the finish. And as if one twist wasn't enough, organisers are
throwing in another by allowing every rider to take one lap out until the
45-minute k.

"It's definitely the first time an event of this kind has ever been run,"
said race organiser Paul Green. "Australian TV station SBS are coming down
to televise it, I think everyone's thinking 'oh crap this is going to be
interesting!'"

With a first prize of $1600 and a total fund of $8,500 the event has secured
participation from the top road teams in New South Wales plus interest from
Professional Continental outfit Drapac-Porsche and an interstate squad from
Queensland. "We're hoping it'll end in about an eight to ten man sprint,"
said Green. "If it's still together with 45 minutes to go then some of the
weaker teams can hang in there and really try to keep the race as close as
possible."

The A-grade Gladiator Criterium is the culmination of the day's events,
which also include a full-day track carnival, women's open and men's B-grade
criterium races. The race will be called by well-known New South Wales
cycling commentator Paul Craft. Festivities start at 11am with the main
event taking place at 4.30pm.

It takes some sampling to choose the right adjectives.

You nailed me. I do care about copyright. I shouldn't have done it but I
honestly screwed up. I even was in similar shoes as yours/JFT's a couple of
months ago.
