What about all the stages he won while he was at sky with a non existent leadout train? Or the last national championship he won? Or Milan San Remo? He's won plenty on the track on his own too. Do you even follow racing?

Pretty avidly thanks. Enough to know you can't really compare track to road.

Admittedly the Sky team wasn't built around him but they still pulled for him when it was flat and he had men who tried to get him in position when it was flat.

I'm pretty amazed he's pulled that gap back today and I'd like nothing more than to see him win.

And Cav had the benefit of jumping on the lead out trains of other sprinter's teams when he was with Sky. Definitely showed he had the ability to win sprints without a train of his own, but didn't see him doing much of the Sagan-esque jump from a smaller group to win.
