Questions about Ben's team(s) -

Dimension Data, his current team since 2107, finished today 20th of 22 teams.

When he joined DD, he was, according to wiki, reunited with former "Garmin team-mates Tyler Farrar, Nathan Haas and Lachlan Morton." As of January of this year, none of those three were with DD any longer.

Garmin is now EF Education first. He had previously also ridden with Radio Shack Nissan which is now Trek Sagafredo.

DD finishes 20th, EF Education first finishes 4th and Trek-Saga finishes 12th.

Given this showing this year, would Ben be asked to join other (better) teams and would he do so? Dimension Data, since 2017, isn't a particularly strong team. See link.

TIA for replies

Good question. I'm no expert, but he definitely won't be riding for DD -- Hokie360 07/27/2019 4:38PM

Great to see his options and thanks! -- PhotoHokieNC 07/27/2019 5:14PM
