You certainly wouldn’t get that from a Daddy Long Legs.
Nicolas Roche is enjoying some well earned rest in Australia at the end of the cycling season.
The Irishman is currently on his honeymoon Down Under but was admitted to hospital earlier this week after getting a spider bite while out for a pedal in the countryside.
Good to be back training on the gold coast after 4 days stop because bad spider bite.

What kind of bite you say? Well one that has left his arm with a massive bruise and a pretty horrible looking sore on his arm that’s what.
For those who were curious about what the bite looked like, my arm a couple of days ago. Crazy Ozzie wildlife ! pic.twitter.com/R6LuSIYV9m

You’d never get a bite like that off a midge.
