It was very generous of Andre Greipel to give his time to sign our pictures
and have his photo taken at the 2017 Tour Down Under in Adelaide.
Andre had already won this event twice and holds the record for the most stage wins at the TDU.
Our tenacious galloper, Greipel, was named after the legendary cyclist - see previous news
Footnote: Greipel retired 21/10/18 and now has a new career in the show arena with Sarah, a young girl from Melbourne who loves Nugget as much as we do.
Andre Greipel has moved to the Israel Start-Up Nation team as their main sprinter and for his leadership and educator qualities. Best of luck to both Greipels.
