I voted "no" before reading the last option. Sorry

 

[jens_attacks]

i have faith in bradley, i voted yes.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Yes, but Froome will be a major obstacle in the Tour.
50% probability.

talk is cheap...................easy to claim possible in the close season

True. I hope he's serious, but we'll see.

 

[Carols]

ROTFL --- that's a No!

 

[airstream]

People say about Tour + Vuelta almost like about accomplished fact so why not in this case? At last, Wiggo's GT style is appropriate minimal waste of energy in the Giro very good.

 

[Forunculo]

First of all I think DB can design a good plan to be good at both races but one should be worse than the other.

Can win the Giro? Yes, the TT, the lack of a clearly better climber and his powerfull team can lock the race. Despite the italian climbs are more difficult to control.

After doing the Giro can win the TdF... without a very long TT he has no advantage over climbers, even less to those who can TT and has to hold Andy, Contador and... Froome itself at climbs. RNT and Saxo can send powerfull team too and split the team to help Wiggo and Froome at the same time it's not a logic plan

 

[cineteq]

Nope. He won't win any GT next year.

 

[movingtarget]

No he can't even if he holds holds form as well as he did this year.

 

[LaFlorecita]

No ****ing way

 

[Publicus]

i voted yes. I want peace in the middle east!

 

[virandociclista]

No ****ing way

What a lovely answer!

 

[Froome19]

If anyone could do it would be Sky with their meticulous planning and all that blah de blah..
Having said that I do not believe anyone can do it.. so "no".

 

[LaFlorecita]

This dude

want to win giro-tour?

 

[HiCadence]

Lol! Only the double? Should be focusing on the treble he's a good enough rider to achieve it.

 

[airstream]

playfully as piece of cake

like that

 

[benzwire]

He will win neither.

 

[element]

I voted yes, because I think he can do it. Whether he will or not is an entirely different proposition.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

This dude

so Wiggins goes partying for three months, turns up and wins the double?
Work hard, play hard.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Lol! Only the double? Should be focusing on the treble he's a good enough rider to achieve it.

Seriously..?

Two .. .. ?
