    Is it just my imagination or is Brad beginning to take on
    some important characteristics of Larent Jalabert? I wonder
    if this guy ain't going to start winning polkadots.

    I think he's got higher (no pun intended) ambitions.

    Have some perspective. This is the Giro, not the Tour.

    What, extactly, do you mean? Granted he's looking impressive
    in the Giro, but he's yet to go on a long solo on a hilly
    day in pursuit of mountain points.

    That was very late Jalabert. The Jalabert of 1995-2000
    showed himself to be a threat for GC in the big tours, more
    in the Vuelta than France, but still in France was a factor.

    Brad seems to be changing from someone that wanted to be
    either a sprinter without a sprint (Hardly Aussie at all in
    that case) or a rolleur without a long breakaway.

    Now he seems to be changing into a GC guy before our
    very eyes.
