Born on Christmas Day 1990, he's a gift to a cycling world which desperately needed a new hero.

As a neo-pro, he wins Trofeo Laigueglia in February and Rund um den Finanzplatz Eschborn-Frankfurt in May, he's second at Trofeo Melinda and then third in the opneing prologue of the 2012 Tour de Suisse (only a few seconds behind world class riders Peter Sagan and Fabian Cancellara).


Time has come. Be prepared for the domination.

Meet Moreno Moser.

He's so amazing he can wear an unzipped jersey over an unzipped jersey over a base layer and still win :p

Shame he's in the Sagan era :p

Impressive ride by him and impressive rider. His results have been superb this season. Definite great future talent and with right team for him.

Are you sure that the second unzipped jersey with the base layer is not just an elaborate tattoo?

He seems like a very good all-rounder, can climb, can tt, has got a very decent punch and a great engine. How well is he on the cobbles? Can he be a factor there? Or is it too wishfull thinking? :)

Jumping on the bandwagon here. Moser seems like a very bright talent indeed. Will we see him in the Vuelta 2012?

Actually we might even see him in the TdF.

As for cobbles: I have no idea whatsoever. His uncle though...


:D

When I was designing my CQ team I had to choose between the Moser and Battaglin bandwagons. I chose Battaglin's. I'm sticking to it goddammit.

Did Liquigas start genetically engineering mutant cyborg babies 22 years ago?? Sagan and this relative to Francesco = DOUBLE BEAST MODE

Where can I get their trading cards??

Omg I didn't even notice how many unzipped jerseys he wears, what does this all mean?? Somehow it must pertain to the 2012 apocalypse??

+ damiano caruso, who did very well in the giro. If liquigas manage to hold on to Them, They could dominate allmost every type Of race in a couple Of years :)

21st today. Pretty good.

He was dropped quite far from the top and still managed to pace himself very well and finish just behind Gesink. It's indeed a good performance.

Still top20 in the GC :D

How is the profile for the long itt? He did a very good tt in pais vasco, but it was also hilly with some technical descents and he seems to be a great descender.
He seems to be in decent shape, so i believe that he can get a result in the itt :)

Not flat at all in the first half.
Then it gets easier.

Let's see how he goes in the next 4 stages, which should suit him well.
