The readers of the Syklingens Verden website have elected the Norwegian Cyclist of the Year 2006. Crédit Agricole's Thor Hushovd won the title with 437 votes, more than twice the amount that were given to second-placed Edvald Boasson Hagen (Team Maxbo-Bianchi), the 19 year-old talent who score three stages of the Tour de l'Avenir this year. Third place went to Kurt Asle Arvesen (CSC).
