In the UnitedHealthcare’s 2016 roster announcement, Hilton Clarke was not be preset in the list of rider for the next season. Indeed, the veteran Australian was not offered a contract but he told on his personal Facebook page that he would like to continue to race.
"The last three years I have predominantly raced with these 5 riders. Adrian Hegyvary, Brad White, Karl Menzies, Carlos Alzate, Luke Keough. They are some of the most loyal and accountable blokes I have ever come across. In these three years I almost exclusively only raced in the NCC (National Crit Calendar). I have competed in 71 NCC races. I have won 12 of them but most importantly and what I'm most proud of is as a team we won 61 of them - 61/71! Amazing!"
Clarke became a professional in 2001 with NetZero. He was introduced to the sport by his father, an Olympic cyclist, at the age of 9. Clarke races for the UnitedHealthcare team. He did also a brief stint in the WorldTour with Fuji-Servetto.
