Mental or random cycling statistics

Talking about Fuglsang‘s age made me wonder: What was the (WT) race with the most riders in their 40s. I was pretty amazed recently when I saw there were four riders in their 40s in the 2014 Tour: Jens, Chris Horner, Petacchi and Tosatto.

Fuglsang must have felt like he was as babysitting in the Tour of the Alps as he was older than the combined ages of two of his breakaway companions!

Volta a Catalunya, Matthew Brennan got a late call-up: won stage 1.
Tour de Romandie, Samuel Watson got a late call-up: won the prologue.

Not mental as in, impressive, but how on earth does Marc Hirschi still is third in the CQ ranking? Feels like the guy is having an absolute nightmare of a season and even last year I can only name a couple of nameworthy achievements.

Great that we both used the phrase "how on Earth".

Now for a very silly statistic, and a record that's unlikely to be broken anytime soon:

Mads Pedersen is the cyclists with the highest number of Grand Tour stage wins in Albania.

Likewise, Elia Viviani is the cyclist with the highest number of Grand Tour stage wins in Israel.
