| No World Champs for Alison Shanks |

Shanks is currently in the US, where she has been since the end of June, training and competing in various road cycling events over the New Zealand winter. From Boulder, Colorado where she is enjoying a month of altitude training, Shanks updated RoadCycling.co.nz's Sarah Christian on the change of plans. "Basically it was just a change of plans, no injuries or illness, the body is in good nick. Basically we (Craig Palmer, Dayle Cheatley and myself) just reassessed the season and decided not to race World Time Trial Champs," said Shanks. Instead of heading to France for a warmup road race, Shanks will now head home to Otago, New Zealand in September. "It's a big season coming up beginning with Oceanias in Invercargill, followed by the World Cup season, World [Track] Champs in March and then the Commonwealth Games in October. So plenty to look forward to," she said.
