It appears he has taught the new jocks his same bad mistakes. Route races in this country are a joke at this point, with the way they are being ridden.

It's like everyone rides like it's the first meet at Keeneland, where everything was a 1/4 mile dash to the finish. Surface doesn't matter. It's just one grab after grab.
