Spektrum / Austria: Daniel Federspiel from Imst was voted Cyclist of the Year 2016 by cycling insiders, journalists and officials with a commanding victory on points ahead of Andreas Graf. The 29-year-old Eliminator double world champion succeeds last year's winner Felix Gall.
Georg Preidler came third in the 2016 cyclist of the year election, followed by Partrick Konrad and Matthias Brändle. The good performance of Lisa Pasteiner, who won silver at the UCI MTB World Championships in Nove Mesto (CZE) in the junior category, is very pleasing. With sixth place, she left both road pro Michi Gogl and MTB marathon hero Alban Lakata behind.
