Kaarle McCulloch who we tracked at the beginning of December 2007 stood up to be counted in a most remarkable fashion at the recent Australian Track Championships held at the Dunc Gray Velodrome from 4 to 10 February.

Kaarle McCullock who was a student at Endeavour Sports High School two years ago rode some of the races of her short career at these Championships.  Kaarle won three Open events.  Kaarle is now a triple Australian Champion. To further illustrate the enormity of this achievement is the point that Kaarle only started her cycling career in 2005.

The results speak for themselves.
