Anyone know much about Rasmus Guldhammer? .
Yes he's currently 8th overall in the Tour of Britain
He was going well in both the Norway races0 -
When he was at HTC he decided that he wasn't really cut out for the full pro life and quit. He was a very highly rated u23.Regarding Denmark there are not that many people to draw a conclusion from but:
10 riders in PT with an average age of 27.6 and average CQ of 267. Age weighted CQ is 28.6
In the top 300 riders sorted by CQ points irrespective of team there are 103 riders who are not in PT teams. Of those there are only two Danish riders. Anyone know much about Rasmus Guldhammer? Apart from having a wonderful second name he is 5th rider of that list of 103 and actually 51st in the rankings including PT riders. Surprised he hasn't already been picked up by a PT team unless he has? He is only 26.
Just checking on wiki, the guy has been around a while, with a team as early as 2008. He also had a one year HTC contract and was a stagiare for Tinkoff last year. Maybe that is why he hasn't been picked up.
There's an article about him here: http://rouleur.cc/journal/riders/rasmus-guldhammer-comeback-kidTwitter: @RichN950 -
Perfect thanks.
Will check the ToB results for him now.
edit. sounds like a racer I would like
The Dane’s recent 14th place at the Brabantse Pijl, finishing at the back of a group that included his teenage hero, Philippe Gilbert, stands out too. “When you’re in the group with one of your idols, it’s a big thing,” Guldhammer says. “He has a really cool style of racing, always trying to give his best and going for the win.
“I’m similar to Gilbert, I like to attack. I wouldn’t say I’m quite the same rider type – he seems much better than me – but I like to race like him, to try and take risks sometimes.Contador is the Greatest0 -
