Will surprises never cease… I just saw the TrainingPeaks video of TD on his website where he announced his attendance at this race. That was news to me so I quickly checked back over here to see for sure. I’m glad to see his form returning and I hope he does well here. Without any decisive climbs it would be hard to see him high in the results, but he could surprise if the situation allows.

Thanks to JV and the staff for putting together an All-Star American lineup for this one. Good luck!

Sure would be nice to get an answer on Tommy D situation. ToM is back on his website race schedule, but nothing here. Please Website Monitor could you interject?

Looking forward to grandson Daniels doings as a new member of the team. After success in the Tour of Pa, and the Red Robin Madison cup, it is great to see him move to higher levels of competition!

As a resident of Missouri, I’ll be out there cheering for Garmin-Chipotle. Will be fun to see them live again. The KOM climbs outside Augusta on the Hermann stage 6 should be fun again. You guys have GOT to beat the heck out of Rock Racing. !

To follow-up on earlier observations - my initial take on JV’s downplaying TD when he was hired was that JV was trying to take the pressure off of TD so he could maybe regain confidence and/or form as he recovered from his injuries. Regardless, it appears that there is something missing in the communication. Either the staff are not clear in their directions/desires or TD is not understanding what they really expect of him. Maybe time for them to sit down and have an open discussion.
