The Los Angeles-born former US champion is the glue of this squad for the American-registered team: strong enough in the mountains to pace the leaders deep into the final, punchy enough to freelance when the day allows. He rode aggressively at April's Tour of the Alps and brings Vuelta-hardened grit to his second Tour. His stated plan is beautifully simple: 'every day, do what I need to do, to the best of my ability.'
