British road race national champion Peter Kennaugh has continued his rise up the UCI World Ranking, moving from eighth to sixth place after winning a stage and placing second overall in the Herald Sun Tour.

The Team Sky rider leapt into the top 10 of the newly-introduced World Ranking last week after he won the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race. Now he leapfrogs German sprinter André Greipel (Lotto-Soudal) to sit in sixth.

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.
