He's very good climber, his best year was probably 2011, when he was second behind Kessiakoff in Österreich rundfahrt and third in Tour De L'Aine behind Moncoutie and Poels. He was 23 years old. Last year was all ruined by back health problems, he wasn't able to do Giro d'Italia for Netapp. Than he won Queen stage in Tour of Britanny.
Talented climber...
