Yeah, I have been arguing this against those who see him as a GC threat.He's not a pure climber and has been on a form peak from Suisse onwards. This was always going to happen.
I just find the term overly pejorative and wildly overused.No one is disputing that. It's just not a good watch.
Was just gonna comment 'Ben 'Icarus' O'Connor'!O'Connor once again flew too close to the sun lol
He seems to have a dichotomy, like last year in the Vuelta, when he was definitively dropped and allowed to ride his own pace, he did an amazing job of defending, but putting him in a group with others, he gets all white line feverish and impatient and tries to do too much. It'll come some day, you'd think.Why the *** did O'Connor pull
