Durbridge will retire at 2027 Australian Road Nationals

Luke Durbridge, the last member of the inaugural Orica-GreenEdge squad still racing at the highest level, will retire at Australian road nationals in January of 2027, making this his last full road season. Jayco-AlUla announced the news after the 35-year-old Australian rode his 11th and final Paris-Roubaix. "It’s been an honour to race this race and I’m just really happy to be in the velodrome," Durbridge said. "I’m just really proud of myself to get here. It’s a bit emotional."
