Career[]

Born in Banteer, Dunbar joined Team Sky in September 2018, after his previous team Aqua Blue Sport – whom he had joined at the start of 2018[6] – encountered financial issues, and with approval from the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), agreed to an early release from his contract.[7] In May 2019, he was named in the startlist for the 2019 Giro d'Italia and came third in Stage 12 of the race.[8][9]
