Early life
Cadel was born on 14 February 1977 at the Katherine Hospital, Katherine, Northern Territory, Australia, to Helen Cocks, a bank manager, and Paul Evans, a council foreman. He spent early childhood in the small aboriginal community of Barunga, 80 km east of Katherine.[5] At the age of seven, Cadel was hit in the head by a horse, and spent seven days in an induced coma. In 1986, his parents separated and he moved with his mother to Armidale, New South Wales, and later to Victoria. Skateboarding was one of his teenage interests. His father describes him as a good student, but otherwise just an ordinary kid who would leave his toys around; "Not in [my] wildest dreams" would he imagine that his son would become a top world athlete.

Evans attended Newling Public School in Armidale, and Eltham High School in Melbourne.

Evans started his international career as a member of the Australian Institute of Sport mountain bike (MTB) team, under head coach, Heiko Salzwedel and MTB coach Damien Grundy, both renowned in their field. He won silver medals at the 1997 and 1999 under-23 world championships and bronze medals at the 1995 junior world road time trial championship and junior world mountain bike championship.

In the summer of 2000 after consultation with Michele Ferrari under the management of Tony Rominger, Evans switched to road cycling fulltime.

He has ridden for Saeco (2001), Mapei (2002) and Team Telekom (2003–2004). From the 2005 season he joined Davitamon-Lotto and came eighth in his first Tour de France, the first Australian in the top ten since Phil Anderson.

Other early successes included overall wins in the 2001 and 2004 editions of the Tour of Austria, 14th in the 2002 Giro d'Italia (he wore the leader's jersey, Maglia Rosa for one day), Commonwealth Games time trial champion in 2002, a stage win of the 2002 Tour Down Under, fifth in the 2005 Deutschland Tour, and winning the mountains classification in the 2006 Tour Down Under
