I dunno, Sylvan.
He had to learn to walk again after an absolute horror crash. He was also a big reason the man who’s just won you a Tour stage joined your team. But he was never going to win it again himself.
This is right out of the Lefevere playbook.

“When these kids go back… whether it’s Ethiopia, Eritrea or Rwanda, they have the ability to change so much there. That’s a whole lot more important than winning a race.”

Four mountains, three HC climbs, 174km, 5,180m vertical and the thousand-yard stares of two La Marmotte Granfondo Alps finishers yesterday evening.
Absolutely massive.
Update on lodgings: tonight we’re in what I can only describe as a derelict former kebab house. How quickly things change.
Will post a few pics of the industrial grill and other ‘curiosities’ tomorrow. All the actual hotels in Agen are full tonight.
