Neve Bradbury, a promising rider for Canyon-SRAM zondacrypto, missed the Women's Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race due to illness, hampering the team's strategy.

Sports director Beth Duryea emphasized the importance of recovery over rushing back into competition. Meanwhile, teammate Chloe Dygert, in good form, carries expectations for a strong performance in the race while the team adjusts without Bradbury.
"Since she's also not 100% recovered, we just said, 'OK, it's not the time of year to be really pushing and forcing'..."
"Dygert has already proven her form on multiple occasions through the Australian summer..."
