Scott Thwaites
“I think I am a very punchy rider who can perform well on various terrains from flat to lumpy. I am also very consistent so I am always available to perform a solid job for the team.“
Scott's riding career began in triathlons, where he showed the talent to become a pro cyclist. He likes the hills and also being in the breakaway. He is a fast finisher and part of the classic division of Team NetApp – Endura, where he acquired some great results in 2013. His eighth place at stage four of the Tour of Britain as well as a second place-finish at the tenth stage of the Tour of Qinghai Lake proved his qualities as a young rider.
