Marko is to the Australian Cycling Scene what potato salad is to a Christmas Lunch. Always there, always a crowd favourite but usually not top of the rank, until this year.

Marko bucked the recent trend by outstaying the young up-and-comers at this year's 270km Melbourne to Warrnambool. We discuss how he manages to stay at the front of any race he enters so deep into his own career and look at how he's helping the next generation make their own way to the top of the sport.
