Jonathan Tiernan-Locke.
 
He won Tour of the Alsace in July, was 6th at the Vuelta Leon, so not really.

The Sky Fan Bois are getting a little excited though over him

He is a decent rider, but he is 27 years old and they have Wiggins, Froome, Uran, Henao that come in line first IMO.

They have good domestiques in Hunt retiring etc and IMO he is there to fill these gaps, so they dreams of GT wins, i.e overall, is a bit far fetched.

If JTL can win this week, it will be his 4th stage win of the year, equalling Wiggo. However, his second in Murcia beats Wiggo's third in Algarve so JTL gets stage rider of the year on points. Let's hope he can do it.
