What is the cycle racing award called?
The Vélo d'Or (French for "Golden Bicycle") is a cycle racing award, created in 1992 by the French cycling magazine Vélo Magazine. The award is given annually to the rider considered to have performed the best over the year.
Originally, Lance Armstrong won the Vélo d'Or five times, but his results were removed after United States Anti-Doping Agency stripped him of his Tour victories. The Vélo d'Or for these years was not given to the second-ranked cyclist. As of 2016, Alberto Contador holds the record of winning the award four times.

What sort of question is that? There are thousands of cycling races held worldwide every year.

If there was a vote for silliest question this would have to be a contender.

There is no logic to this question.

Is it even worth saying that if the award is known as the Vélo d'Or then that should be what the question refers to?

"Golden Bicycle", they worked long and hard to come up with that one.
