Sprinters 001: Djamolidine Abdoujaparov - Cycling Art Print
Some great sprinters are cunning. Some rely on a great team to deliver them to the line. Some are just plain fast. Some are wilder, crazier and badder than the rest.
And the maddest and baddest of them all was Djamolidine Abdoujaparov, the Tashkent Terror. Elbows out, head down, weaving across the road, you passed 'Abdou' if you dared. But Abdou was fast too, and one of the few men to have claimed the points jersey in all three Grand Tours.
Each vertical segment of the artwork represents a slice of Abdoujaparov’s life - the Grand Tour jerseys he won, the Alfa-Lum team he started his pro career with, his birthplace, and his memorable and massive crash on the Champs Elysees.
