• didn't he start as a time trialist?

    He did. He was twice World Junior ITT champion, and finished third in the 2010 u23 World ITT, behind Taylor Phinney and Luke Durbridge, and beating the likes of Rohan Dennis and Tom Dumoulin. He turned pro based on his TT abilities, but then Skil-Shimano noticed his sprinting skills at a training camp and turned him into a sprinter. He won 17 times in his debut season, including a stage of the Vuelta.

  • If you remember this and aren't just looking up pcs then I wonder what you're not remembering?

  • I can never remember which way to loosen pedals.

    I looked it up the other day, as I was getting annoyed by idiots claiming Kittel's power numbers were akin to your average UK first cat. That 2010 u23 race stood out in terms of the quality of the field.
