Higuita got GC in the tour of Columbia 2.1, Martinez second with Bernal third. Rigo was only a few minutes behind after his nasty Vuelta crash. Martinez bagged the national time trial. I'm hoping the quintessential American team has good results this year after a nasty 2019 season.

They definitely are starting the season off right. They were decent at the Herald Sun Tour down under with Powless finishing 4th overall.

I've become a fan of theirs over the last few years. Especially Lochlan Morton. I'm sure it's from watching their video series. But he seems like a genuinely good guy.

I'm not ready to say he is replacing Sagan as my favorite rider, but he's drawing ever closer.

EF Cycling fan here.

They owned Tour of Colombia and were awesome in the last of the racing the pro peloton did in Paris Nice.
I was looking for Lachlan and Alex to make it interesting in the Cape Epic.

....hmm fast forward to now.
To be continued I guess

If the forecasted schedules of the races will go as planned, it's going to be a crazy season with all these races so close to each other. Some even overlapping each other I think. It will be interesting how teams will shuffle riders.

I can't wait to see how Uran and Froome do now that they've had an extended recovery time. I wonder if the Columbians will have an advantage living for an extended period of time at altitude vs the Europeans who maybe lose out on altitude training?
