the 6-foot-1, 140-pounder with a 385-watt lactate threshold is doing his best to soak it all in

JEZ-ZUS.

JEZ-ZUS.

And he's just a domestique ... Just think about what Froome, Wiggins, Contador, etc. put out! :mad2:

JEZ-ZUS.

It always amazes me just how good these guys really are.

Good article from RBR. He will be fun to watch, seems to be enjoying himself!

I hope he didn't drop out of engineering school to be a pro cyclist.

Doesn't this kid have people looking out for him?

I was just saying. I guess he could always get his BS after he retires from cycling whenever that is.

If he's got the discipline to train at pro level then going back to school (or taking classes in the off season) will be a piece of cake for him. He's got a young body now, he can go back to school any time in his life.

I bet he can trade up to Virginia Tech if cycling doesn't work out.

It's all possible. For example, Jeremy Roy (FDJ) holds an engineering degree.
OTOH, from the picture it looks like Sky has a very lax crosschaining policy.

I guess it's a compliment that the Brits deemed Dombrowski and Boswell "Sky Worthy". Hope they develop and all, but I can't root or anything on Team Sky for some irrational reason
