In the interests of good taste, I am relieved to hear that his birthday is not September 2000.
At least he was born in this millennium. Though, I suppose all up-and-coming riders are these days. Even an established and seasoned pro like Remco Evenepoel was born in this millennium.
And do you have any idea how crazy it is to refer to a 21-year-old as an "established and seasoned pro", and only partly be joking?
It's a rare thing to come across someone with such a name. Happens once per millennium or so.
They reproduce once per millennium? So, what you are saying is that he's a descendant of Odin, Thor, Loki?
Maybe he just decided to change his surname to Millennium, because he's just that cool!
But, yeah... I suspect at least one of his parents is called 'Millennium' too.
Some would that the year 2000 was part of the last millennium though.
His father's called Henrik Sand Millennium. I don't know whether he's of English descent or if numerology just used to be a huge thing in/on Funen.
Hmm, at least they didn't name their son Anders Sand.
The coolest cyclist names superhero team-
The leader can only be Charles Planet who has the power to control the earth's tectonic plates.
Ian Millenium is the tech wonder kid who can come up with an app in seconds to solve any problem.
Évita Muzic's power is to turn any musical sound into a weapon.
Who else?

Retired now, but Jeremy Powers is one. He can do everything with multiple powers.
Rob Power, though, only have one power; nobody is quite sure what it is.
And here are a few more:
Corbin Strong - superhuman strength.
Ben and Connor Swift - superhuman speed.
Aaron Gate - opening gates.
Surely Sarah Hammer and Sarah Gigante need to be part of this.
And Steele von Hoff.

Just had a look at the results from yesterday. I'm surprised that he and almost everyone else is ahead of the canadian rider Cameron Jette. I'd have thought he would have 'propelled' to his way to the front. But i guess using a jet powered bike is cheating.
Cool. They should name a race after her.
As you already know, Damien Gaudin and Dorian Godon may have more in common than their mother tongue. But the conspiracy doesn't end there.
In a shed, somewhere in Burgundy perhaps, weird experiments were once being carried out by a Dr. Mabuse-like character to ensure, that every major French team in the future would have someone with the initials DG (possibly sponsored by Dolce and Gabbana) and an English sounding given name in their squads.
You have the experienced Damien Gaudin at Direct Énergie, the cheese champion, Dorian Godon, at AG2R and formerly Cofidis, and the one you're always waiting for, David Gaudu, at FdJ.
And last, but not least, we have a guy, who hasn't proved himself yet, but he will ultimately do so in the upcoming years.
Introducing the Reunion Fusion, that is Donavan Grondin of Arkéa Samsic.

I've grown to quite like the awesome rhyming style of Lonneke Uneken.
