Should this article be proposed for deletion? Lacks a lot of riders and can become really big.-Drunt 17:16, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe it just needs some focus... List of cyclists who have done something, otherwise people just add their own favourites. Indiscriminate lists aren't good. Severo^TC 22:05, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It needs some context, and I am not sure what the decade header is meant to be. Is it the the decade that they were born in? Is it the decade they won their first major award? Lance Armstrong spans three decades in his career. The list needs years of birth and death and sentence or two saying what their contribution is. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 17:40, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
