I'm all good with 84 making his way over the pond to take on a race but...
If he wins(and he very well could) it will be against a very very depleted group...tomac will be on cruise control for the title, misquin will be charging and bb4 will be whatever he can with his thumb...
There are no bragging rights to be gained...dungey/villopotto must be wondering why he never stepped up in the last 5 years...suddenly now out of the blue?
I'm sure he will do well...he is lightning fast...but this is an exhibition and nothing more...nobody gets to say 'better than america' after this OR 'euros can't hang' if he fails...
It just is what it is
