Rubbish. He loves racing a bike, irrespective of the discipline.
But the money is in road racing and he's only really dabbled in it so far, he needs to commit for the next couple of years to see where his ceiling is.

But a Grand Tour isn't just 'racing a bike' is it. Have to deal with travel, media, politics, essentially living with the same people for a month etc etc. It's a hassle. Also, much of the riding is boring compared to bombing around an XC course. Not every day is the Galibier descent.
And as for 'dabbled', he's done 4 GTs lol.

Always seems like road racing is pretty boring for him and all a bit of a pain the the arse compared to MTB. Clearly just doing it for the wonga.
