American sprinter Tyler Farrar (Garmin-Transitions) has moved up to eighth in the latest update of the Union Cycliste Internationale's World Ranking, thanks to his second place at Sunday's GP Plouay in France.

Farrar's second spot came on the back of his win at the Vattenfall Cyclassics in Hamburg the previous weekend. GP Plouay winner Matt Goss (HTC-Columbia) moves up from 98th to 37th spot.

Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
