Greybeard Posted September 17, 2013 Share Any word on Froome being Knighted as was Wiggins after last year's tour. Perhaps it's unfortunate that he comes from the colonies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted September 17, 2013 Share I think Wiggins was knighted for his overall contribution to cycling in Britain. His palmares on the track must have contributed to the honour. Greybeard and T-Bob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydude Posted September 17, 2013 Share I think Wiggins was knighted for his overall contribution to cycling in Britain. His palmares on the track must have contributed to the honour. Yeah he also won gold at the track olympics last year as well as all his previous track achievements. But they will probably give Froome a MBE, OBE a CBE for 2013 at the end of the year.

Blackbeard Posted September 17, 2013 Share Knighthoods are given out like sweeties so I can't see why Froome wouldn't get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RexFuzzle Posted September 17, 2013 Share Also, Wiggins was first brit, Froome was second brit to win... Big difference I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bob Posted September 17, 2013 Share Knighthoods are given out like sweeties so I can't see why Froome wouldn't get one. Probably because he's 2nd at the moment. 2nd in last years tour, 2nd pom to win the french race, second african born rider to wear the jersey... it's kinda ordinary for them now. Fair dues to twiggy, his was a historic event and he's racked up enough golds and titles to get a 'sir' in front of him. Reckon Froome could get a CBE and if he wants to get down in bended knee then he'll have to up his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
