These are among the phrases used at the Vuelta a España, by BMC Racing directors as well as peloton insiders, to describe American Tejay van Garderen, who abandoned the Spanish race on Stage 17 after riding in support of Samuel Sánchez.

Ah yes, the rest day, the chance to catch up on ordinary chores and step off Planet Tour if only for a few hours. It’s also the time when teams organise media calls that are less chaotic than on the roadside beside a team bus before or after a stage.

Tejay van Garderen is entering his eighth year in the professional peloton and it could be said that at 26 years-old, that it is his most important. We caught up with Tejay at a recent BMC training camp in Spain to talk; Tour, Nibali, Lance, food and US cycling.

The Tejay van Garderen who showed up in Aspen, Colorado for the US Pro Cycling Challenge wasn't the same rider who lost the race by 21 seconds last year and 17 seconds the year before. This wasn't the guy who had curled up in a traumatized ball of angst at the finish of that first Vail time trial or the guy who mentally cracked under the relentless attacks by Garmin-Sharp and faded on the final day in Denver.
