That's funny. I was thinking Cancellara can really climb...

Especially for someone weighing 200 lb.

The pro cycling physique is a weird one.

He was around 81kg when racing (similar to Boonen). 6'1" - maybe 90kg isn't so bad for a retired pro that barely rides. I always thought he was lighter too.

I would have guessed something like Sagan (around 73kg)

Explains why such talent couldn't take on the cols.

Been following the videos leading up to this "challenge". Here is my favorite:

I gathered from what was presented in previous videos, albeit the Gaimon side, that Fabio wasn't too into this race. It kind of was anticlimactic from my point of view. Glad that Phil showed class in the video and how the race ultimately finished...no spoilers .
