CyclingNews: Martin recycling the family name

As a bit of background on Dan Martin, here’s a CyclingNews profile of the up-and-coming Irish star from June 25, 2007, right after he signed with what was then Team Slipstream.

From the article: “Regarded as one of the best young climbers in Europe, Martin’s ability to go uphill fast has made his signature the most sought after by the top ProTour teams this year…’He is a highly sought after talent,’ said Vaughters last week. ‘We beat the ProTour teams to the punch in signing this hotshot! His talent and also his sense of humour will fit in perfectly to this team.’ ”
