There is one thing puzzling me regarding this years tour and it happens to relate to Mr. Wiggins. During a televised interview he suggested that following his performances "everybody would be questioning whether he was on drugs!" Well nobody was asking him that question when he was busy being a world pursuit champion.
The format of the tour this year flattered Mr. Wiggins (never mind Mr. Armstrong) but becoming a road man he is not. His latest comments regarding his 'future options' which may result in him leaving the track behind are laughable. When the screws were really turned, and that only happened once or twice, he was found wanting. He even got dropped on the downhill run in on Stage 17 by little Mr. Nibali! How a world class pursuit rider can't keep up with a tiny little climber is beyond me.
Am I the only one who thinks this trackie has become slightly dillusional?
