Cameron Meyer put his well-honed time trial skills on display in the elite men's criterium at the Mars Cycling Australia Road National Championships.

"It's another special win," said Cameron. "Obviously to win any Australian championship is special. I'm a little surprised as the criterium is not my forte.
