Blythe is stepping up to Lotto, was on Davo and Konica Minolta, may be as fast as anyone,

then there are Bellis, Fenn, Christian, and perhaps the most talented rider of all the brits, Kennaugh. Certainly a golden era coming up.

Agree totally apart from Kennaugh, if you mean Peter his younger brother Tim has even more potential. Just had Dowsett (7th in U23 TT) join Livestrong although maybe not the best destination?

Really? Did not know that Burke had such a kick. Where did you see that?

he is quick... but, if he where to switch to the road and change physically to cope with the demands of 130km stages day in day out, would he be as quick

i dont know, but the kid has a lot of promise..

and this is what people have to bear in mind with Sky... its not who they have now, but who they will have in the future...

I knew about Tim, because was looking at Isle of Man taking a fair few gold in the Commonwealth Games if Cav will ride. They could win teams pursuit, madison, points, scratch, and rr depending on what riders the Australians and NZ and English put on the velodrome.

Dont rate Dowsett. Thought if Brailford took Stannard and Thomas in the worlds u23 tt champs they would have won a few medals. Dowsett and Hampton do not have the class of the others.

keen to see what Cummings can do when he has the best program. Most likely will sneak into a Tour squad if he continues his upward improvement.

Stapleton is the owner. How much input does an owner have, unless he is owner Director? I would have thought he mostly signs off on others decisions.

PS I hope Goss is used as more than just a man for lead outs, I see him as a very accomplished classics rider in the future. Only 23 years old.

+1
3rd at Gent Wevelgem this year. Impressive results for a 23 year old.
