Daryl Impey

Daryl Impey (born 6 December 1984 in Johannesburg) is a South African professional road cyclist riding for UCI ProTeam Orica-GreenEDGE. He rode in 2010 for Team RadioShack. His best win to date has been the 2009 Tour of Turkey, despite a controversial incident where he was pushed into the barriers by Theo Bos. Impey had originally signed for 2011 with the Australian team called Pegasus, but was forced to seek employment elsewhere after that team failed to secure a UCI license. After riding for MTN Qhubeka and Team NetApp in 2011, Impey joined GreenEDGE for the squad's inaugural season in 2012. He won a stage of the Tour of the Basque Country in April of that year, before making his Grand Tour debut at the Giro d'Italia in May. In 2013, he became the first South African leader of Tour de France.
