  • Yes - but I think that reflected the type of racing he grew up with rather than what he is most naturally suited to. He went over and did kermesse racing from a young age (14 or so), so I think he was used to fighting for position on bad surfaces. I guess he is tactically very aware and is a badass racer, but physically more suited to stage racing.

    Edit - last year he rode the Ardennes classics, and i guess he may this year as he is at País Vasco probably to tune up.
