This year's Tour du Rwanda offers a mix of everything but chances for true sprinters. While many stages might end up in a sprint of a group, this group will be usually significantly reduced, meaning that the Israel - Premier Tech's sprinter Itamar Einhorn probably won't enjoy this year's edition much.
And so, to find the Israeli team's leader, we need to look at climbers. And naturally the name of Chris Froome strikes the sights even if his era of Grand Tours dominance is long gone.

However the name of Joe Bickmore shouldn't be taken too lightly either. The new Israel Premier Tech Academy recruit will celebrate his 21st birthday during the race, and an improvement of his 6th place overall from last year would be more than a nice present for the young Brit, who was also 12th overall at Tour de l'Avenir in 2023 and showed great promise in his first road season after coming over from cyclocross
Israel - Premier Tech lineup for Tour du Rwanda:
Chris Froome, Joe Bickmore, Itamar Einhorn, Moritz Kretschy and Guy Sagiv

- Just making the note that itโs actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogaฤar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabalโs departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
