Ben Samuel Tulett (born 26 August 2001) is a British cyclo-cross and road cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Visma–Lease a Bike.[4][5]
Career
Early career
In 2018, he won the Junior World Cyclo-cross Championships in Valkenburg[6] and repeated the feat 12 months later in Bogense.[7] In 2018, he also won the British junior road race championships.
Professional career
Tulett shifted his focus solely to road racing in 2020, joining UCI ProTeam Alpecin–Fenix.[1] He finished fifth overall in the Tour of Antalya that year, his first race with the team. In October, he became at 19 years old the youngest rider in 100 years to complete Liège–Bastogne–Liège.[8] The following year, he further showed his promise as a classics rider with top 20 finishes at the Amstel Gold Race and the La Flèche Wallonne. In August, he finished ninth overall at the Tour de Pologne.[9]
In 2022, he signed with UCI WorldTeam Ineos Grenadiers, taking his first pro win on stage three of the Settimana Internazionale di Coppi e Bartali in March.[3][10] He ultimately finished second overall in the race, nine seconds down on winner Eddie Dunbar.[11] The following season, he took his biggest victory yet, winning the first stage and overall title of the Tour of Norway.[12]
He again moved teams in 2024, signing a two-year contract with Visma–Lease a Bike.[13]
