Meet Your Guide
One of the most well-known names in cycling, George Hincapie defined the term domestique, making a name for himself by serving his teammates and putting their needs above his own. George brought victories in a record 17 Ronde van Vlaanderen races and a second-place finish at the grueling Paris-Roubaix, which was the best placement of any American. George also competed 17 times in the Tour de France and won three U.S. National Road Race championships.
