ANDREW TALANSKY (Garmin Sharp)
Overall Winner (Criterium du Dauphine, 2014)
Major Acheivements to Date...
However, it is only this past month that Talansky has strode ahead of Teejay and established a reputation as America’s captain. A superb victory at the 2014 Criterium du Dauphine was all the more impressive in light of the cycling illuminati the Floridian outshone: Chris Froome, Alberto Contandor and Vicenzo Nibali all fell to the wayside. If Talansky can transfer this early promise into consistent results over a month-long grand tour, he stands every chance of riding in yellow come 27th July. *

Talansky in yellow... a regular sight in the future?
