Evans became the first Australian to ever win the Tour de France this past year. And at 34-years-old, he can also claim the title as the oldest man to win in 88 years. Better yet: his victory didn't include any doping allegations! He's fast, clean, and looks great in a yellow skin-tight racing suit.

In its annual rundown of the 49 Most Influential Men, AskMen gathered more than 200,000 reader votes, along with their own editorial team's opinions, to compile a 2011 list that includes newsmakers ranging from actors to athletes to politicians and other visionaries in between. Whether through inspiration or contribution, these men defined 2011.
