Sam Bewley will ride in the Tour de France for the first time when the famous race begins next week.
The 33-year-old New Zealander has been named in the Mitchelton-Scott team.
He'll ride alongside compatriot Jack Bauer, who's been selected for a fifth Tour de France.
It's the first time in their eight year history, Mitchelton-Scott, hasn't named an Australian in its line-up.
Last year's stage winner, South African Daryl Impey, British rider Adam Yates and Colombia's Esteban Chaves lead the charge.
