In other news, that link in post 9 that generated the list and errata posted later in the thread has some limitations.
1. World Tour teams only, hence the IPT exclusion.
2. It seems to include only those who have scored PCS points, so it does not yet feature the new lad on Ineos. Et al? Let's hope it does soon.
Here's that link again:

So now we have Luke Lamperti as a neopro maybe-sprinter, riding with Quickstep....

"only 1600 watts" he says.
21 years old

So I was catching up a bit on PCS and checking out IPT; there's a 23 y/o American Riley Sheehan that went pro last year, two wins and the GC at the Joe Martin stage race; even more interesting is his first place at Paris-Tours. He shared the podium with the likes of Lewis Askey and Tobias Johannessen.

This is Sheehan's second stint as part of the Israel-Premier Tech setup having ridden for their development programme as an U23 rider and now as a stagiaire, but for the 2024 season, he is set to ride for the Denver Disruptors in the National Cycling League.

The jury is still out on the NCL. Last year they cancelled half the season. I hope more sticks this year and it becomes an avenue for US growth.

I didn't realize that Dombrowski has been pro for 12 years.

And here's Lamerti in his Quickstep debut in Mallorca, leading out his teammate for the win and then finishing third.
not a bad start
Oh, sprint starts at about 3:38 in the video.

Another young American pro to watch - Matthew Riccitello. He's been in the peloton for 3-4 years, but he's only 23 and seems to be coming in to his own.
