Chris Froome starts 2024 season at Tour du Rwanda

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
