3 Quite exotic riders who might be worth adding...
Jyme BRIDGES (Antigua and Bermuda)
22/08/1989
Time trialist, Last year’s nat. champion. Also 18th at the Pan American championships ITT in 2010.
Russell ELCOCK (Barbados)
06/12/1993
3 Times national champion ITT.
Alex Ariya DESTRIBOIS POUNSAVATH (Laos)
03/02/1991
Rides for the team from Brunei this season. Was 32nd at least year’s Langkawi and won the Southeast Asian Games. Can only assume he’s a decent climber/puncheur.

and another suggestion
Miguel Bryon 10/01/1995
2nd in Junior RVV and 20th in Junior Roubaix! Decent number of top10's in sprints in Europe and not bad at prologues either. To me looks like a promising Sprinter/Classics type rider, especially at the age of 19

Name: Samuel Pökälä
Nationality: Finland
Born: 14/08/1990
PCS: https://www.procyc...uel_Pokala
CQ: https://cqranking....erid=20169
His best results are in TT’s with a Finnish championship in 2013 and participation in the 2013 World champs. Also 5th in the Finnish RR champs 2013. Seems to survive hills decently, though with no punch to make a good finish.

Nationality: Sweden
Born: 20th July 1994
PCS: https://www.procyc...;id=167934
CQ: https://www.cqrank...erid=21551
Several strong TT results. Finished 4th and 5th in the first two stages of Baltic Chain Tour (uphill finishes) gicing him a day in the leaders jersey and 7th at 2012 European champs suggesting a decent punch for his age as well.
Name: Luis Lemus
Nationality: Mexican
Born: 21st April 1992
PCS: https://www.procyc...eason=2013
CQ: https://cqranking....erid=19395

Going into 3rd season at Amore & Vita.
Also Luis Pulido seems to be double in the DB (ID’s 780 & 7819)

I don't know if you listen to someone who is not yet part of the game, but here some riders you might want to add to the db. All of these are from Asian countries that aren't represented much in the db.
Ronald Oranza
02/12/1992
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=21183
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=141245
Phillipinan ITT champion, also took part at Asian cycling championships and became eigth at the U23 ITT with an average of 46 km/h on a 28 km course. Also became second on a flat stage at Jelajah Malaysia.
Rustom Lim
08/07/1993
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=19983
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...Rustom_Lim
Best scoring Phillipinian on both CQranking and PCS. He is current Phillipinian champion. Other than that his best result last season is a second spot on a stage at the Tour des Fillipinas behind Mehdi Sohrabi, looking at the times this was from a breakaway.
Mark Galedo
11/09/1985
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=14351
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...xer-Galedo
Most consistent Phillipinian. Fith at the mountain stage of Le Tour de Fillipinas. The biggest race he took part in last season was a 2.1 race, the Tour of Taihu Lake, he finished somewhere in the middle. Won the TT of the Myanmar Games, ahead of Oranza.
Van Duan Le
29/10/1987
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...derid=8952
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=133796
Vietnamese sprinter, once fifth and sixth on stages at the Tour de Singkarak last season. Before that very successful at a stage race in Brunei where he beat more known names like Hossein Nateghi (yeah I know also not that well known.. but some my know him). Became fourth at the Asian championships last year.
Thanh Tam Nguyen
11/12/1992
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=20117
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=168973
Vietnamese champion, other than that there I only found one decent result, that was at the Tour de Singkarak, fifth at a sprint stage so I assume he is a sprinter.
Duc Tam Trinh
04/12/1992
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=19623
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=168648
Second of the Tour de Brunei 2012 by becoming second in the deciding hilly/flat stage. On top of that became second at the U23 time trial at the asian games. I think his best stats should be figther and TT.
Shreedhar Savanur
07/07/1994
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=22079
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=183522
Indian road race champion, also eigth at the third 'CFI International Race' race through Delhi. The race is called international but in fact only the Malaysians of Terrenganu and Indians took part so that's not that big of an achievement. But he finished third of a big group so I'd guess that he is a sprinter.
Sangamesh Talwar
29/03/1986
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=13557
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...esh_Talwar
31st of the still young Asia Tour of this season. That makes him the best Indian in the ranking. He is that because he had the best result in one of the three IFC international races. He became second out of a eigth man group. I'd give him figther, maybe sprint and or hill stats.
Sachin Kumar
20/01/1990
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=22081
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...chin_Kumar
One of the best Indians at their three home races, coming 3rd in Mumbai and 9th in Delhi. In Mumbai he crossed the line 21 seconds behind the winner, judged by the times the profile was the most demanding of the races, so maybe a little better energy stats than the others I mentioned + hill stats. In Delhi he was one of the best of the big group sprint. Kumar is also the only Indian I found who participated in races outside of India. He took part at the Sharjah International Cycling Tour in UAE without good results though.
Abhinandan Bhosale
27/02/1993
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=22263
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...an_Bhosale
The only Indian that was quite decent in all three of their home races. Even twice finishing top five. Becoming third in Delhi in the same group than Talwar and also good in Mumbai sprinting out of the big group, so maybe again sprint stats.

Some more:
Ji Wen Low
27/10/1989
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...derid=9600
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...Ji_Wen_Low
Sprinter from Singapore, best results of the last season a ninth place at a sprint stage at Jelajah Malaysia. Far better seventh on the third stage of this year's Herald Sun Tour (2.1) in a mass sprint. The other stages he couldn't hang on to the peloton, so maybe decent sprint stat but low energy stats.
Choon Huat Goh
14/12/1990
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=18399
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....eason=2012
Climber, got his best results last season on summit finishes (East Java, stage 3; Banyuwangi Tour, stage 2). He took part in the Tour the Langkawi 2012 where his best result on a stage was 11th. This was a rather flat stage so I think he was in the break, it was also the longest stage.
Shan Shuang
15/04/1992
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=20758
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=126742
Is the actual Chinese champion, won in a sprint I guess.. Other than that he took part in the Tour of China almost on every stage finishing ~25-30 out of 120.
Yulong Xu
14/04/1990
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=18540
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/.../Xu_Yulong
Timetrialist, got eigth at the Asian TT championships other than that there is only one entry at CQ from the Tour of China 2011 so I don't know if you want to add him.
Peilun Wu
16/07/1990
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=12884
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/.../Peilun_Wu
Chinese climber, scored his CQ and PCS points with a good overall classification at the Tour of Fuzhou where he got sixth at the queen stage. Also took part at a 2.HC race, the Tour of Qinghai Lake, where his best result is 14th on a stage with a climb of 1600 heigth metres is in. Also became 12th in the KoM ranking.
Zhihui Jiang
03/03/1994
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...erid=21205
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....?id=175158
Sprinter, he could gather several Top ten places at stage races in china (2.2 and 2.1) at the 2.HC race he toulk part in, the Tour of Hainan, he at least sprinted to several top 20's.
Etienne Bonello
27/06/1977
CQ: https://cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/ride...derid=5052
PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...ne-Bonello
Malta RR and TT champion. Other than that finished at the Sharjah International Cycling Tour at every stage somewhere in the top middle.

Some Sri Lankan riders with a bit of guesswork for abilities from geography, road conditions and results I could scramble together
Thusitha Hettiarachchige (17/12/1983)
https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/...derid=9197
Ok TTer, but likely to go better in hilly TTs than flat ones, - most riding in Sri Lanka happens in the hill country - plus likely low Flat stat judging by TTT performance.
Dane Nugara (17/05/1989)
https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/...erid=21253
Another TTer, maybe a little room for improvement and probably better than Hettiarachchige.
Ishan Sandakelum (06/05/1989)
https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/...erid=17799
Think a Delage type rider - decent over the hills and can sprint. Last results xame as a 20 year old so may have improved a fair bit from his ability when 18th in the Tour of Delhi.
Laxmen Wijerathna (26/05/1986)
https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/...erid=17897
TTer/Sprinter, probably not hugely talented but maybe a CT domestique at best.
All riders mentioned would probably have decent Hill stats (most races run in the hills), decent TT stats (hard to close roads so TTs mainly run) and high fighter stats as the roads are crazy - you have to fight for road even in a car!

Jack Haig - - 06.09.1993 (20 years)
I know he hasn't raced pro races yet, but due to his outstanding performances in the Australian National Road Series, I thought he may be worth a shot. He also finished 3rd in the AUS NC's RR (Espoirs) and 4th in the TT.
"Haig, 20, sealed the individual honours following an unprecedented breakthrough season on the road including overall victories at the Battle on the Border and Tour of Tasmania.
In his maiden NRS season, Haig narrowly took out the series on 85 points, just two ahead of teammate and Teak Sky signed Nathan Earle (83 points).."
So as the overall winner of the NRS ahead of Earle, he looks worth a mention. He did well in both TTs and mountainous stages, so definitely going to be a decent s6age-racer.
Mark O'Brien - - 16.09.1987 (26 years)
- already in DB / ID: 5238 -
I guess he could need a little stat boost, given that he's already on XP3, if I'm not mistaken. He had a quite difficult season with Team Raleigh without many results except of finishing 17th in Circuit des Ardennes International (2.2), but did quite well the years before.
Taking out several mountainous stage-races in Australia's road series, plus finishing quite well in the NC's (12th, 13th recently) and 19th in Japan Cup 2012, I guess his MO/HI/TT-stats shouldn't be that low.
(more later)
Just to add some more 2014-based impressions/results to those two:
Haig proved his huge talent by grabbing the White jerseys (Young Rider) in both his WT-debut (TDU) and the Herald Sun Tour, where he also finished on podium overall.. he's also already in talks with several WT-teams and is expected to race some European races already this year!
O'Brien did quite well in the Nationals Road Race (yet again), finishing as 7th.

Here's another Swiss guy from Team Vorarlberg by the way.
Name: Nicolas Winter
DOB: 15/02/1989
Nationality: Swiss
PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....eason=2013
He's listed as an all-rounder on the team website. Results don't give much information because he doesn't have anything that stands out.

Nationality: Canada
PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...l_Lachance
Won and was up there in most sprints at the costa rica tour which is against moderate opposition for 2.2 level also has some high placing in Canadian tour races mostly in flat stages so a Flat Sprint specialist.
Name: Anton Varabei
DOB: 02/09/1985
Nationality: Canada
PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...on_Varabei
Went to the tour of costa rica and lead out Lachance very well but seems to thrive in the hills with good results in the Tour of Delta and Bucks County Classic i'd say he's a one day rider with a good finishing kick.
Name: William Blackburn
DOB: 12/03/1989
Nationality: Canada
PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....eason=2013
Has started the tour de beuce the past two years and been able to serve his team well as a team mate probably best with flat as best stats low recovery.

PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...er_Delaney

PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...dam_De_Vos
Young rider done well in French races and finished the tour de gila and delta in delta managed 30th which is way inside the first group also top 10 in National TT so good hill rider with nice TT
Name: Lucas Wardein

Nationality: Canada
PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/...as_Wardein
7th overall in a 2.1 stage race including a 2nd place finish on the queen stage could be a good stage racer. though struggled in the TT
Name: Brandon Etzl
DOB: 28/05/1994
Nationality: Canada
PCStats: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider....eason=2013
25th in the otur of delta and finished national championship won a sprint stage in 2.1 race last year and was 2nd in another one i'd say sprinter who can climb.

Haha hey JT, Lucas Wardein is actually my room mate. He is not Canadian, he's from Florida so the information on that site is wrong. He's not really a pro, he races for an elite domestic team, but if you're going to add him I would make him a sprinter with a good flat stat as well because he has a big engine. He cannot climb very well.
