Vuelta a Burgos stage win sees Primoz Roglic secure milestone 125th leaders jersey
Cycling
Primoz Roglic has been at the top of his game for years seemingly. Aged 33, the Slovenian continues to take big wins, the latest of which has seen him reach a career milestone.
The Twitter account Cycling Statistics has scoured the data once again and found that Roglic's stage 3 victory at the 2023 Vuelta a Burgos, which saw him move into the overall lead of the Spanish race, has secured the Jumbo-Visma leader his 125th leaders jersey since 2014.
This impressive tally puts him well and above anyone else currently active in the peloton. Chris Froome is a distant second with a still impressive 83 leaders jerseys whilst Tadej Pogacar and Remco Evenepoel are hot on the heels of the Brit with 64 and 61 respectively at a much younger age.
Geraint Thomas, Jonas Vingegaard and Julian Alaphilippe are all in the 40's with Simon Yates and Rohan Dennis rounding out the list with 36 and 35.
