I, and also on behalf of Senators Bernardi and Arbib, move:

That the Senate—

  (a)   congratulates Mr Cadel Evans on winning the 2011 Tour de France bicycle race; and

  (b)   notes that:

     (i)   Mr Evans has fought back from an adversity after a serious accident as a child in the New England region and is an inspiration to all Australians, and

     (ii)   cycling is a healthy activity for recreation and competition.

Question agreed to.
