This year’s SWT team has five of the same six riders who combined to finish sixth in 2008, with American-based expatriate Shane Watts replacing Ben Kearney.
In the JWT, Josh Green and Toby Price come in for Blake Hore and Andrew Lloyd, the latter retained in the squad as a reserve. Australia was second in the JWT last year.
Meanwhile, this will be the first year that an Australian women’s team has been sent to the ISDE.
