Do you look like a famous cyclist?

Every time I see a picture of Bradley, I think that he could be my brother if Lance was my mum. Due to my warped brain, I imagine myself as looking like a mixture of Bernard Hinault's "dashingness", Gilberto Simoni's "boy next door ishness" and...and... Eddy Merckxs waisteline. Unfortunately I am deluded and look like this (this guy could be my doppelgänger):

I don't expect you guys to give up your anonymity and post pictures of yourselves, but who do you look like (from the cycling world)? And if you didn't look like this, then whose photo would you take to the plastic surgeon? And which parts would you "adjust"?

    Guys who look good in long or short knitwear or anything

    P.S. I actually do look like one of these photos. I night with an Aggie of your choice for guessing which. And how can this lad afford Rapha and fags? Maybe that's why he can only afford rollies

    Does Adrian Chiles cycle?

    I like to think I have a resemblance to Thor Hushovd (if I lost 30kg or so), Our styles of beard, when appropriate, are somewhat similar so then it's more pronounced.

    I have the same physique that Wiggins would have if he didn't do lots and lots of training. Facially, probably LA is about as close as any I can think of but that is a very very credibility stretching lookalikey.

    Short brown hair is about the extent of it.

    That's my office nickname - unfortunately the only resemblance between me and George is the hair! But it's better than the alternative they have for me which is Derek the weatherman who any Welsh folk on here will be familiar with.

    No cycling lookalike for me that I can think of but I used to get told I looked like Tim Henman (with better teeth) when we were both in our heyday about 20 years ago.
