Age 28

Track Cycling

The track cycling doyen has unfinished Olympic business after a serious crash hampered her preparations for the 2008 Beijing Games. The 28-year-old wants three gold medals in London - the individual sprint, keirin, and team sprint paired with Kaarle McCulloch. Cadel Evans (Getty)Cadel Evans

Age 34

Road Race

The reigning Tour de France champion will be a sentimental favourite with fans, but he may well not qualify. At the last three world titles the Australians have won gold (Cadel Evans), bronze (Allan Davis) and silver (Matt Goss) in the men's road race, and competition will be hotly contested to see who represents the green and gold.

Age 25

Track cycling

After putting a string of past disciplinary problems behind him, Shane Perkins is now the reigning world champion in the Men's Keirin event and shapes as a genuine gold medal contender in London. After controversially missing selection for Beijing, this fiery character has unfinished business at Olympic level. Team pursuit. (Getty)Team pursuit

Men's 4000m

Australia are the reigning world champions in the men's 4000m team pursuit, and the duel with Great Britain, Russia, New Zealand and possibly Denmark will be one of the main highlights from the velodrome at the London 2012 Olympic Games. Strap in for the ride.
