ON THE DROPS INTERVIEW: Sam McCallum
Sam is our very first OpenDev member from Australia. Having caught our attention for his 5.5w/kg output and being the head coach at @Velo.Goals, the Melbournian spends a lot of time on the bike and helping others do the same. This season, Sam has already competed in the Aussie Nationals after returning from a winter spent in Thailand (Yes, you read that correct – even the Aussies escape their own winter!).
READER'S RIDE: Sam's Neil Pryde
Many moons ago, bikes were simple in their appearance often only with their maker's name adorning the downtube and maybe a stripe or two. And OpenDev rider Sam McCallum's ride is no different - but that is where a homage to the past stops for Sam's Neil Pryde Bura SL.

After travelling back from the GST Gesellschaft für Strömungsmeßtechnik mbH (more commonly known as the Airbus Wind Tunnel as used by Canyon) in Southern Germany, Luisa has since reviewed the results marking the next step forward. Now she explains exactly what happens.

WHO'S WHO AT CANYON EISBERG? PART 1
CANYON EISBERG CHAMPION TUBELESS FOR 2018
Hunt Bike Wheels is proud to announce our continued and developed partnership with Canyon Eisberg (formerly BIKE Channel Canyon) for 2018. Eisberg Wines have stepped up their sponsorship for this season, following their already-significant involvement with the team in 2017. They have replaced BIKE Channel as a title partner, following the media outlet's collapse in September.
9-YEAR-OLD CX PRODIGY
Ladies and gentlemen, let us introduce you to Theo Sandell. At the time of writing he's no less than 3rd overall in the London X League cyclocross standings in the U10 category, just 2 points behind 2nd place after 11 full rounds of racing. With two wins and no result lower than 6th, we're dealing with some seriously consistent performances. And he's 9!
