What's he up to?

I think he got injured early in the season, and I believe he has a second child due sometime soon, but racing -wise he's been well below the radar. Not down for any Ardennes races or Romandy. Is he still racing?

    Been sick a fair amount so wrote off most of the Spring Classics. Thought he was down to ride the Giro, though jumping straight back into a GT without any warm ups sounds a bit on the demanding side. He did tweet a pic of training behind the old scooter yday...

    I did wonder where he had been, since reading his book I've not seen him race once!

    Think RR is spot on following illness he is concentrating on the Giro/Tour.
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    He was at P-N and MSR. Pitched up in Belgium at start of the cobbles but called it a day before long

    He did actually tweet that he was doing that earlier in the season - maybe during Oman or Qatar? I do remember thinking that maybe doing some racing would be a good idea! :lol:

    He also tweeted that he had got really sick and basically his classics was a write off and he was looking to the Giro

    Start of the season a write off. Now Giro-Tour is the focus. Good to see @andrewtalansky & @DanMartin86 taking the reins of Garmin-Sharp.
