Rhodes returns to Thüringen Rundfahrt

By Greg Johnson

Australian cyclist Alex Rhodes will join compatriot Katie Brown (Vrienden Van Het Platteland) in returning to the event where the horrific crash that claimed the life of the pair's Australian Institute of Sport teammate Amy Gillett took place, after being named in her T-Mobile squad's lineup for the 20th Internationale Thüringen-Rundfahrt der Frauen. Rhodes, who will lineup with Australian T-Mobile teammates Kate Bates and Oenone Wood, is returning to the event for the first time since the 2005 accident after missing last year's race.
