Cavendish on lab IDT testing

[PPWTF]

http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/mark-cavendish-boy-racer

All cyclists hate stationary bikes or ?rigs?, mainly because they?re
synonymous with leg-butchering, lung-perforating fitness tests, but no
one hates them more than I do. At the [british Cycling Federation?s]
Academy I?d almost literally kick and scream even before I was put
through one of these ordeals, to the point where eventually the coaches
decided it was too much melodrama to bear and agreed to let me opt out.

All the feedback I?ve got from these tests could be condensed into a
single message ? the same one you often hear directed at opposing fans
at football matches: ?You?re sh*t and you know you are??"

Straight talking, straight shooting. Gotta luv the kid.

how do him and ciolek get on these days?

[ShortLegs]

Just fine since he switched to Milram 

[Tumbleweed]

always wondered about them. i remember reading a joint interview in procycling where they were all pally. had doubts as to how long it could last? 

[ShortLegs]

I guessing Ciolek (like Griepel) stopped being pally with Cav after the first couple of cans of whoop-a$$ were dealt.

 

There too might come a time when Cav is consistently beaten by a team mate at which point you won't see any more friendly hugs-n-kisses after the finish line.
