This isn't a breakaway specialist who can hang on for a top 20 that climbs okay (Chavanel, Voeckler) , a super strong domestique that still hangs on to that top 20 (G. Thomas pre win) , or a fringe 10-25 GC rider that makes a breakthrough top 10 (Navarro, LuLu, Karpets, Monfort). This is a semi hardy C sprinter that has none of those qualities, that finished 18th. Thor Hushovd, the God of Thunder, was not only a better climber and engine than Swift but won 2 stages from a break, team won the TTT, and lead GC finished 68th. A sprinter who finished second best on his team and the riders in 19-22 are way better GC riders. Now at 32 he is 18th, next year what, 10th or higher?
