Lance Watch 13: Our hero makes top 10 list of all time great cyclists…
Tue, Jun 02, 2009 13:20

Just. Lance is in in 9th place! (shurely some mishtake?) as ever Jan Ulrich is right on his shoulder in 10th place.
Mind you, this internet list might not be the most authoritative poll of the Top 10 cyclists of all time, the picture accompanying Miguel Induarain's spot in 8th place is of Marco Pantani. And Jacques Anquetil in 3rd looks to be on a Rapha photoshoot - it's the Rapha jacket and cap that's the giveaway. If he is wearing Rapha Maitre Jacques looks to be in pretty good shape for someone who's been dead for 22 years… riding the bike is a pretty neat trick too.
Tony has been editing cycling magazines and websites since 1997 starting out as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - which he continues to edit today. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes.
