Amy Cure has kept her promise to return to the Christmas Carnivals series, confirming on Wednesday that she will be taking part in the complete seven-day cycling program starting with the Ulverstone Criterium on Boxing Day.

It is a return to the series for the 24-year-old from West Pine, who spent last Christmas overseas, with her participation always part of her plans in the lead-up to the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games, as she revealed to Fairfax Media in April.

This year she became the first Australian track cyclist to medal in six different world championship events after tasting success in the team pursuit, madison and omnium in Hong Kong in April and she also spent time with the Wiggle High5 Pro Cycling Team both in Australia and overseas.

Finishing the year with a win on her 25th birthday would be the definition of perfection for the two-time Olympian.
