I bet you and your pal can pick him up and throw him in the air 30 feet high.

I have to ask as I'm just not keeping up with current stars and team rosters - who is he (obviously a Sky rider), what's his name?

Did you offer to buy him a nice meal? He looks like he hasn't eaten in a few years.

Two normal sized, pretty fit humans.... and a pro bike racer. Amazing to me that these waifs have the muscle mass to put down watts that I could never dream of.

I'm 5'9" and just under 150 lbs
He's 5"9" and just under 130

Re: buying him a meal. SKY bought a round of coffee and pastries - the boys in blue finished of quite a few bear claws.

REALLY cool people, by the way. We spent about 1/2 a day with them and the riders, soigneurs, mechanics, the DS, and everyone from SIS treated us like we were part of the squad. Totally personable and totally pro.
