The guy is one of my favourite riders and along with Steve Cummings is also likely the closest born pro rider to me.
It occurred to that Dan switched from British cycling to ride for Ireland (much the same that Matt Brammeier did also) - I was wondering why so? More opportunities riding for Ireland? - Or a rumoured fall out with BC.
I wonder just how much coverage this guy would get if he was racing with a British License, its talked about how much potential Geraint Thomas and Peter Kennaugh have (but they haven't won a classic yet or finished in the top 10 of a GC) or how good Chris Froome climbs (yet wasn't raised on British roads or through the BC system).
Dan is probably the best British born climber since Robert Millar and I wonder if he will surpass that soon.
