He is 21yrs old. 

21 eh?! WOW

 

John, keep doing what you are all doing! The team is looking phenomenal at the moment.

 

I am really enjoying the youngsters and their complete disregard for the 'peleton rules'.... Shake up the racing, shake it up early and all the time.

 

It's great to see

The UAE Tour is very likely to be cancelled, Italian media reports, after all the teams have been isolated in the hotel, where riders will be checked by doctors to see if they present any symptoms illness.

Eh!

"To see if they present any symptoms"

Is there a good reason for this, other than epidemic paranoia...

 

Are they going to isolate the whole population?

Details are sketchy..saw this on twitter

 

The situation at the moment is a bit confused, but authorities are testing all riders and staff located in a specific hotel due to a possible case of coronavirus #UAETour

Perhaps someone staying the that hotel has symptoms .. look if someone indeed has the virus and that person comes into contact with one of the riders it would spread like wildlife through the peloton...and all those riders who have asthma would be in serious trouble.

Crazy this.... I work here with an Italian chap. He’s been talking all week about his folks in Northern Italy and how they have shut down due to the outbreak. Shops have run out of food and water, schools have closed and the place is basically on lock down. I thought he was exaggerating a bit.....seems not!!

 

Bloody Italians !!!!

And a pity, I was hoping to head out to the stage today... Oh well. Safety first and thinking about it, imagine how an infected Pro Peloton could spread this thing!! I mentioned a few days ago just how many people were involved in the event, and all of them in close proximity for days on end.... Yoh!!
