On Saturday 24 year old Meyer provided one of the highlights of the 2012 world championships in Melbourne when he launched a last ditch attack
that saw him snatch the gold medal in the dying moments of the 160 lap points race.
"In Melbourne I achieved what I wanted to on the track through my points race win and making the podium for the Madison," Meyer explained after
arriving back in Perth with his cannondale cycling jersey third points race rainbow
jersey and the bronze medal he claimed with Leigh Howard in the Madison. "I take huge satisfaction from that and now I want to see what I can
achieve on the road."Cycling Australia National Performance Director, Kevin Tabotta, says he accepts that it was Cameron's decision to make and
appreciates him making it now so the squad can get on with the job of preparing for London.
"Of course we're disappointed because Cameron is one of quick step cycling jersey our
most talented cyclists but we respect his decision and we're sure we'll see big things from him as his road career develops," said Tabotta. "We
have excellent depth in our men's track endurance group and, as we've seen in recent months, they are capable of posting some of the fastest times
ever ridden."Tabotta says it's impossible to know whether an Australian team pursuit with Meyer in it would be faster."That's something we'll
never know," said Tabotta. "Cameron has cycling jerseys not been in castelli cycling jersey the line up for the pursuit since 2010 and we now won't have an
opportunity of finding out if he could have reached or exceeded the level of his past pursuit performances."
