MVDP is on a tear. If I average ~180 watts for a four hour ride I think I crushed it, and my max wattage is only like 900-1000 watts. Unfortunately I fear he's the new Sagan in that he will be constantly marked in every race and no one will be willing to work with him.

....Didn't seem to hurt him in Amstel Gold, i'm calling a BS GPS hiccup on his Max speed though, that's like 77 MPH.

I've seen 70mph on Taylor Phinney's Strava before on descents in Colorado during training rides.

I've personally hit 64mph coming down roan mountain.

Everyone in the peloton is on notice now. He will likely now get the sagan treatment going forward
