Sepp Kuss won the Vuelta a España , the first grand tour win for an American since Chris Horner ’s stunning victory over Vincenzo Nibali at the 2013 Vuelta.
Horner was nearly 42 when he wore the red jersey into Madrid , and American cycling was at its modern nadir.
Kuss is the oldest of a new generation of young American men who have the potential to bring the US back to the front of the peloton.
Kuss is one of the most popular riders in the peloton: laid-back, self-deprecating, constantly with a smile on his face.
Kuss won over fans not just because he seems like a good hang, but because of his tireless work as a domestique for the Jumbo-Visma team.
