Apparently ProCyclingStats is popular in Slovakia, considering the amount of non-Sagan Slovaks in this year's "Favourite 500 riders" list

Patrik Tybor? Michael Kolar? A whopping 128 people picked Erik Baska?  

 

And Richard Carapaz only 29th

I thought this was with only active riders, but surprisingly not.   Those Ricardo Ricco fans not on par this time, losing 127 places from last year.

Fun to see names from longer ago (but not so long ago that I didn't watch yet)...old bald Levi Leipheimer, Jaan Kirsipuu who was shaking of fear when the first small hills appeared in the TdF, France's eternal hope Sandy Casar, downhill legend Paolo Savoldelli, etc  

 

How on earth did Gianni Moscon end up as high as 187th though?! Even Puck Moonen is in, who has not finished a single race in more than two years but keeps getting a contract because, you know. Clicks
