The ITT's threw me off for a moment but then I remembered that SA champs count, so went with it as along shot. Only remember his TDF appearances, will need to go see when the Vuelta and Giro happened. Please keep this going, great fun.???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulst12 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Hate to say it but Froomy has a terrible chart. As much as i would love him to be top ranked he just hasnt been the same since his accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say "terrible". from 2013 - 2017 he was in the top4 for 4 of those 5 years, and all worked around just doing prep and focussing on a GT (or two). what you can say is that his rise from relative obscurity was incredible, but the fall off it was even more dramatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted May 26, 2021 Share for today's mystery rider, he is currently doing Giro and on the slate for TdF too. quite a consistent guy actually without ever shooting the lights out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted May 26, 2021 Share Looks to be of a similar age to Daryl, so given the consistency and age, I'd think Dan Martin. If not Dan, I don't think Bardet (I'm sure he's younger). Underachiever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
