James Whelan says he'll be happy to race for Australian continental squad Team Bridgelane for the remainder of 2022 after securing victory in the Festival of Cycling.
The 22-year-old, overlooked for a World Tour contract despite three years with EF Education-Nippo, overcame a one-minute penalty imposed for motor-pacing from his team car during his stage one victory on Thursday to win the event by 24 seconds from teammate Matt Dinham.
