It’s no secret that the factory bikes are actually pretty close to the consumer bikes and sometimes heavier for durability...
Eli takes a few laps to get going and slow to get going at the start of the season. Probably going to be the same Sunday.
But a lot of races in a short period of time should favor Eli if he gets rolling and doesn't crash/fall.

The new baby could be an issue but Eli is always in as good of shape or better than anyone out there. He seems to wear everyone down. So logically I thought the others would get worn out more than he would with the compact schedule.
These guys are all in amazing shape, though. I think the altitude thing is being a little overblown from an athletic performance standpoint, especially since most of the riders will have arrived early and started the acclimation process. Some of the races will be in the 90’s, and I think that may be a bigger issue for them to deal with. Especially if the humidity is a little higher than usual.
Again, not making a case or rooting against Eli, but let’s not forget he’s the one who seems to struggle with freak arm pump from time to time.
