Cycling Weekly/CycleSport 100 best riders

A subjective list from these publications but interesting nevertheless. Valverde no longer in the top 10 and Thomas well placed in 7th.
any thoughts?

Strange that Vos makes the list - she is amongst the greatest ever but she barely raced at all in 2015 due to injury!
Ahead of Kristoff, Contador, Degenkolb????
Way overrated.
Take a look at his Vuelta 6th overall.
Who did he actually beat??
agreed. Also the Yates brothers (although exciting talent unfolding) punch a bit above their weight in this poll in my opinion.
Winner of the Bike Radar Pro Race Wiggins Hour Prediction Competition
Agree with you and Rick. Dumoulin - I'm a fan, but above the winners of the Giro and the MSR-P-R double? Come on...
And I think there's some poll-doping going on with the Yates x 2 in Croydon Towers
Pauline PF is also overrated - I think she only won one road race in 2015 (a Giro Donne stage)
Absolutely. Nibs completely hamstrung here. He's certainly had a bad year by his standards but still better than some above him

But she's purdy...
G above Contador is a joke. GVA way too low.
Was this an X Factor-type vote?
Tho this is also amusing:
78 Joe Dombrowski
24, USA, Cannondale-Garmin
Baby-faced climber who won the 2012 Baby Giro. After getting little opportunity at Sky, he’s shown more GC promise at Cannondale — including overall victory in the Tour of Utah.
Yeah, well if he'd been able to swing a leg over a bike for more than 4 weeks during the entire 2014 season, it might have helped his chances
She rode the MTB world cup though ahead of the road - it doesnt specify road does it?
Edit - it appears to be, so I have to (very grudgingly) agree with you

Fronk is still in there despite a dreadful few years.
GVA way too low.
Agree with the above on Aru.
Tekle? Rowe? Spengler...Haig is a neo FFS...Mads Pederson...Wiggo...Boonen - surely if you are going to talk about past wins, Kittel has to be above 84th.
Pile of pup.
...yep, based on a load of s**t by the looks of it. Mind you, we're clicking on the link so they're getting a bit of traffic bless 'em.
People can't believe such an un-educated list of top riders, that people will click to try to fathom how they made it so awful.

Its meaningless.
There's a reason regional CTT officials and audax riders are single...
