    Who will win the 2014 Vuelta?

    I voted J-Rod, because he has to win a GT some day right? Right?

    Is Walsh on the Sky bandwagon?

    He's now denying it / backtracking (depending on your interpretation). This one will run and run.

    No, that's you projecting.

    Is Walsh on the Sky bandwagon?

    I really don't think so. The person he's responding to said "I have no confidence in the clean generation" and "there is no longer anything to see here". Walsh is trying to convince this person that the peloton is cleaner.

    I think the implication of those tweets is actually that Contador is clean now, the evidence being that his performances in flatt TTs are worse post-ban than they were previously. He is trying to convince someone that the peloton has cleaned up.

    Should Wiggins Ride the Tour this Year?

    I don't want to support Contador OR Froome. Will Dan Martin be riding the Tour?
