Is Taylor son to the famous Phinney?

I didn't see Bookwalter, where is he?
Taylor is Davis and Connie Phinney's son. He was bred to race, I guess. He is a phenomenal talent and will eb a star although he may hnot be a grand tour rider. He is a track stud.

Bookwalter did very well in the first few stages but, as a domestique, he suffered for no gain in the mountains and is now somewhere in about 147th position on the GC. Even so he has looked pretty good, I think.
