Two things Froomie did I will never forget.

 

The day he called me because he was caught with his bicycle on the N1.

 

The day he took a race marshall to the ground.

Quite enjoying Wiggins' candid rapport with the press. It's like Sid Vicious took up bike racing.

 

 

 

"There was some chatter in the Twitter-sphere about the comparison between Sky and US Postal," said the AP journalist. "I'm wondering your reaction. And, what do you say to the cynics who say you have to be doped up to win the Tour de France?"

Wiggins, sitting behind a desk in the cabin, picked up the microphone and delivered his message nearly 100 metres away to the press tent.

"Honestly, they're just f**king w**kers," Wiggins said. "I cannot be dealing with people like that. [Laughs, from the press tent - ed.] It justifies their own bone-idleness because they can't ever imagine applying themselves to anything in their lives. And it's easy for them to sit under a pseudo-name on Twitter and write that sort of s**t rather than get off their arses in their own life and apply themselves, and work hard at something and achieve something. And that's ultimately it."

The translator readied to deliver the message in French, but before she could, Wiggins picked up the microphone and sent the final message to the cynics: "C**ts!"

Abruptly Wiggins left the Cabin, ready for another 24 hours in yellow.

Actually not sure who he is but that geezer who manages Sky reminds me a bit of Johnny Rotten.
