    Not too late to blossom. Tyler Farrar is 25, but apparently wasted some his potential but at least had the sense to straighten himself out instead of giving in to party scene.

A lot of the improved results this year comes not so much from better riding but rather more teamsupport, protcted rider status etc.

There was some sniping at each other after one of the spring races.

Gilbert frustrated by lack of communication from Evans, if I’m remembering correctly. So it’s especially nice to see them working nicely together now.
