Discovery team update

With the Tour de Georgia over and Discovery Channel's main man for the Giro d'Italia, Tom Danielson, showing he's ready after his win Stateside, the 27 year-old and his team manager Johan Bruyneel took time to reflect on a stressful but successful week.

"We were all disappointed after the time trial [Stage 3] but we had to stay confident and realize that it was still possible [to win]," said Danielson to ThePacline.com. "For all of us, we had to have the mental energy to bring us back up and focus on the job ahead of us. I'd say that's where Johan came in to play, as he was great in motivating the team."
