For sure he can ride a bike and evidently he is a very good runner. Wonder if he can swim?

Wow I Googled him and saw a 9:08 3000 Steeple and a 30:40 10K.....whew. With his future in cycling though I don't know why he would ever look at tri. He can go make a great living in cycling and see the world on Radio Shack's dime!

Can you imagine Johan calling up? He must have dropped a 3lb turd in his shorts.

With times like 30:40 and 9:08, he's an average college runner. But his progression in cycling is quite impressive.

I think he figured out on his first ride with the Cat 1 friend that running was a thing of the past for him.....this kid has some skills!

How fast are the fastest amateur triathletes doing road 10k's by the way? I watched a 15 year old kid from drop a 32 flat in Indianapolis in the spring.....it was freaky to see. Not a triathlete, but a darn fast little chillren.

My favorite part:
“He’s truly gifted athletically and he has a good competitive head on him, too. He has a tremendous motor combined with a real sick capacity for suffering.”

He's likely clean as well - I'm sure they'll be testing a lot on team Radioshack with all the Lance hype.
