Career

Hayman left Team Sky at the end of the 2013 season,[2] and joined Orica–GreenEDGE for the 2014 season.[1]

On 10 April 2016, he won Paris–Roubaix, the eighth professional victory of his career. On the final sprint at Roubaix Velodrome, he beat Tom Boonen, Ian Stannard, Sep Vanmarcke and Edvald Boasson Hagen. His first reaction was one of disbelief: "I can’t believe it [...] This is my favorite race, it’s a race I dream of every year. This year I didn’t even dare to dream."[3]
