Re: Tommy D. lighting it up
Only days after Tommy D resurfaces with a post on the Slipstream site , where he commented that he was " very excited to see how I am riding", he apparently DNF'd today in Portugal ... for reasons as yet unknown (at least to me, haven't seen anything yet as to what happened). So, I thought he was supposed to be getting experience to improve his bike handling skills before the Tour - initially in the early season Belgium races (but then something happened), and then somewhere else where he again was injured or something ... and now, who knows???

Re: Tommy D. lighting it up
Poor old Tom. Will we ever see his likes again? When he retires we'll all miss having him to kick around.
Who is the up-and-coming heir to the lil' Tommy D title? |

Re: Tommy D. lighting it up
Update: according to a comment by "admin" on the Slipstream website (after the race report), Tommy D is "ill" (again??? poor guy) and heading home for testing.

Re: Tommy D. lighting it up
Danielson is a mediocre talent when not on a program.

Re: Tommy D. lighting it up
"It wasn't until a small race in Portugal that I realised that the goal I thought I was working towards, the Tour de France, was now in jeopardy," he said on his website tomdanielson.com. "My progress was not enough for my team and I was told needed to show something quickly in Route du Sud or I wasn't going.
"I poured on the pressure and really wanted to show my team I was back to my winning ways. The uphill time-trial was the perfect chance for me and I entered the race so excited to show I was back. I started incredibly strong and had a very fast time going, as this sort of event is my specialty. At the second time check I was ahead of the best time at the moment. "[However] with only four kilometres remaining my body just shut down. I clearly went out too hard and became extremely frustrated. I took that into the next two days of the race and rode strong for my team-mate Dan [Martin], helping him win the overall." Danielson feels that he would have ridden into form if he had got the nod for his big season goal. "While I understood I wasn't performing at my best level, I was hoping at least I could go and help out the team at the Tour," he stated. "I have a solid record of performances in Grand Tours and I truly believe I could have accomplished amazing things at the TDF. I can confidently say I've never felt better in training and I've shown in the longer races that I've improved day after day." |
