Sorry if I am mistaken, but I believe you are referring to Jørgen Leth and his description of Ryder Hesjedal?

True, but a rider is still at his best around 27-32. It's changing a bit with all these youngsters the last years though. I still find it almost just as abnormal as Froome's riding.
Again the 32 thing is only recently. 27 is a rider's physical peak in most cases, but everyone is different. Just look at Sagan, he has clearly hit his physical peak at a much younger age than most. Or if you want an extreme example of people getting worse with age, Merckx was slowing down in '74, at age 29.

Have I missed something?
Choppy Warburton, an English coach, was the first to organize doping for his riders - in the 19th century.
Isn't they great.
Some how they have found succesful formula..to keep winning and be on at picture at any race
Not only sprints, riders like Haga, Dumoulin, Barguil and Geschke are really good in the mountains/hills and are great stagewinners aswell. Brilliant team in my opinion!

I think it's also a great team for German cycling fans. Their core of German top riders may revitalize the faith in cycling in Germany and may lead to a new team in a few years.
