"It must be some kind of record," Amanda Spratt pondered her eleven-year tenure at GreenEdge as she rang in the new year wearing brand new colours, debuting her Trek-Segafredo kit in the kick-off to the summer racing season in Australia.

"I was definitely a bit nervous. I was also laughing to myself a bit at the same time because, yeah, I've been with GreenEdge for 11 years," Spratt told Cyclingnews in an interview over the phone from her parent's home among the Blue Mountains in New South Wales.
