Lawson Craddock

What race? Part of the Alternative Racing thing EF's been doing?

Solid result for LC today. I keep hoping that he is going to "get over the hump" of this pro cycling gig.

That helmet though.

Wearing the KOM with 1 day still to go in the Dauphine? I would like to see Craddock do well, and I did enjoy his attacks that animated a couple of stages but in general I think the KOM competition a red herring.

If he gets in the break tomorrow and wraps it up before the gc action starts on the Joux Plane, you’d have to tip the hat to him. He’s riding this Dauphiné like someone who’s been told his ride at the Tour/contract for ’22 depends on it.

KOM jerseys in general are problematic these days.

Yeah, that didn't work out.

Captain America! At least when he puts on his TT costume

It will be better than that EF Pink!
Finally a reward worthy of all the effort he puts in.

Congrats LC!

Every time I see that POC helmet

If you reverted back to the spring in 2016, you would think that he was going to retire with much better palmares but unfortunately he fell into mediocrity after a promising early career.

Lot of top 10s in GTs without a win...

1x 3rd
4x 4th
1x 5th
2x 6th
3x 7th
2x 8th
1x 10th

Crazy he never won a pro TT outside of the National Championship. Seemed to get ~3rd-6th in basically every TT I ever saw him in...

Congrats to him though on a solid pro career. 15 years is no joke at that level.

I kept waiting for him to break out but never did.
I like his name...Lawson Craddock....it is unusual.
He couldn't make it in NASCAR because he has two last names. You need to first names for that sport.

Has been well off the pace this year and my understanding is that he had limited options for 2025. He is riding the tour of Norway.

Always seemed like a really likeable guy and great teammate. The 18 TdF made it easy to root for him. Hope he stays involved in the sport, I am sure he will.

 

[Squire]

Seemed to show up approximately once a year to remind everyone that he can actually be quite decent. Tirreno was that race this year. I also remember him suddenly riding the finale in one of the Ardennes classics one year, completely out of the blue. A weird career, but as said he seems like a likeable guy.

Lawson isn't actually his first name.
