Who do you think was the best road racer of 2016?

We have picked out 16 riders from both the men's and women's pelotons who have consistently excelled over the past season.

Have a read through the shortlist in the panel below and rank each rider as you see fit.

You can vote on each rider only once. Hit the up arrow if you think they should be higher on the list, or the down arrow if you think they should be lower.

We'll monitor the results over the next few weeks and announce next month the identity of your rider of 2016.
