Great performance, Snowbird is always a great MTF.
Tomorrow we'll get the classic Park City stage, that's usually a great stage.
Villalobos is also looking pretty good, only 20 years old and it would be pretty cool to have a good Mexican climber around.

Hopefully they'll go all the way to Alta one year. Not much further up. Or keep going up the pave section after that.
Honestly, I'd rather have them keep the traditional Snowbird finish and have Powder Mountain once again, that's a brutal climb.

I agree. That's an even better option.


I also like this idea better.

Tejay has arrived.
Guy isn't even good enough to be a super domestique at this point, he's basically just a very ordinary rider which tends to crack when it gets really tough. Can do great in time trials, but its ages since I have seen him do really well in the mountains - his motor suddenly just stops and he just cracks.

Well to be honest he was pretty good in Tour of California earlier in the season.

Kuss has been very impressive today. Tomorrow is the Empire Pass climb.

I think that climb is harder than Snowbird. Steeper pitches for sure.
Guardsman Pass from that side is probably the hardest climb in Utah, right?
