I just can't find anyone, who has a two syllable given name and a two syllable surname among the Canadian Kelly Benefit Strategies riders I haven't already mentioned, apart from someone who also rode for Spidertech or Rally.

These are the remaining Canadian Kelly Benefit Strategies riders I have found on PCS and UCI.org:

Keven Lacombe: Also rode for Spidertech
Martin Gilbert: Rode for Spidertech and also shares his surname with Philippe
Mark Hinnen: One syllable in his given name
Dominique Perras: Too many syllables in his surname and also rode for Phonak at one point
Ryan Roth: Rode for Spidertech
Zachary Bell: His name doesn't fit the bill/rode for Spidertech/works for Rally today
Ryan Anderson: Rode for Rally
Sebastian Salas: His given name doesn't fit the bill
Will Routley: He rode for both Rally and Jelly Belly
Guillaume Boivin: Still active/name doesn't fit/rode for Spidertech
Michael Woods: Still active/name doesn't fit/rode with Talansky
Pierrick Naud: Name doesn't fit/rode for Rally

Did the team now known as Rally start out as a non-UCI team?
And if so, did our guy ride for it back in those days?

No, but I asked if he had ever ridden for the team now known as Total Direct Energie, and Libertine answered no.
Which means what exactly in relation to Spidertech? Their lineage ends when they go belly up in October 2012? Did Europcar purchase the zombified assets? Or is the director of Spidertech (the company) an Andy?

This isn't how I thought you'd find your man, to be honest, but I think you've isolated him now.

It is indeed Keven Lacombe, the former Drummondville Voltigeur, and one of the most unexpected and bizarre changes of sport that I've seen. Here he is in his former domain.

I had been considering asking whether he had ridden for Spidertech, and then I successfully managed to convince myself I actually did it. That was clearly my own fault.

But I did find him by looking through the 66 US Andy and Andrews in the PCS database. Most of them hadn't ridden for a UCI team, so it didn't require too much work.

Could be a limited link. It shows up on my screen. If you try to quote my post you should probably see the URL. Either way, it's his player card from his ice hockey days.

Some riders are just TOO Canadian.

Dunno if I'd consider ice hockey that much weirder than ski jumping or dressage...

Female? Yes
Active? Yes
Racing today? No

With him being Canadian, I wouldn't call it that bizarre either. If it had been chess boxing I would fully agree.


Did she ride LBL this year?
On a WWT team?
