The race takes place in South Australia and will run from January 20-25, 2009.

Armstrong recently announced he would make a comeback to cycling with the aim of winning his eighth Tour de France. He is also cycling once again to promote the fight against cancer worldwide.

Armstrong is himself a cancer survivor having overcome testicular cancer in the 90′s before going on to win his first of seven Tour de France titles in 1999.

The inclusion of Armstrong in the Tour Down Under is a huge boost for Australian cycling. Armstrong does have plenty of star appeal and his participation is great news.
