Caleb Ewan hasn't raced the Australian Road Cycling Championships since 2019 but will take on the Mount Buninyong Road in January to test his increasingly evident ability to handle short climbs and then still win a sprint finish.

Ewan is expected to be one of the key players in the Australian summer racing. He will line-up for the Australian national team at the Santos Tour Down Under and Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race.
