Indeed.
But some sprinters are better at freelancing than others.. even Cav says he needs his leadout to really seal the deal.
Tyler's brave enough to stay in the top 10 in the final kms, but not fast enough to finish it off.. I predict he comes back to the US scene before too long, where he'd be plenty fast.
