Only the Strongest will wear the Pink and you have show all never to underestimate you again.
Meanwhile Aru and Kangert deserve major kudos for their performances in delivering him!
And I just loved him kissing his wedding ring to celebrate; lucky lady his wife!

Well he had pretty well toppled them before they felt ****ty....at least Wiggo anywayLaFlorecita said:They dropped out because they felt ****ty. So he didn't actually beat them and if he did, they weren't in great formby the way read my edit
This. If Wiggo was in Pink after the ITT he wouldn't have flaked out like he did.Netserk said:Wiggo didn't feel ****ty until Nibali pwned him.![]()
okay, fair enough, but you have to admit that Nibali didn't actually beat himNetserk said:Wiggo didn't feel ****ty until Nibali pwned him.![]()
what people don't get is that if the top guns are not in good shape, they don't make the field much stronger. Well at least disgraced former moderator Barry agreesCarols said:Well he had pretty well toppled them before they felt ****ty....at least Wiggo anyway
The strength of a field is determined by who starts, not who finishes. I will not dispute that the field was pretty thin by the end, as the final results reflect.
Yes he did. Both started. Nibali was in Pink before Wiggo got 'sick'. Wiggo chickened out.LaFlorecita said:okay, fair enough, but you have to admit that Nibali didn't actually beat him
Of course he beat him and not for the first time this year either, one finished first (and looked comfortable doing it) and one failed to finish does not change that fact.LaFlorecita said:okay, fair enough, but you have to admit that Nibali didn't actually beat him
Wiggins may have thrown himself of a cliff if he had to ride in these conditionsLaFlorecita said:okay, fair enough, but you have to admit that Nibali didn't actually beat him
You could perhpas argue that for Hesjedal, but Wiggo was behind Nibali after the tt, and before he got "sick" so yes, Wiggo got beaten as much as Uran or Evans in this GiroLaFlorecita said:okay, fair enough, but you have to admit that Nibali didn't actually beat him
yes but that's because he's a *****Red Rick said:Wiggins may have thrown himself of a cliff if he had to ride in these conditions
But Wiggo had career best numbers, and Ryder looked to be in amazing form. Ryder clearly went too-deep during the ITT, and Wiggo clearly psyched himself out which was partly Nibali's doing.LaFlorecita said:what people don't get is that if the top guns are not in good shape, they don't make the field much stronger.
Indeed, go to the beach and get some warmth back in the body! Do they have children?contessador said:Grazie, Lo Squalo!
Edit: now he can spend time with her somewhere nice and warm![]()
No they don't. I've seen pictures of Nibbles playing games with Agnoli's little girl on twitter though so it's probably on the agenda at some point.Carols said:Indeed, go to the beach and get some warmth back in the body! Do they have children?
Wow nice back storycontessador said:I read that Mr. Nibs and Mrs Nibs just tied the knot last October.
Apparently his friend Agnoli introduced them to each other.
He does seem very grounded. The Shark is a good catch, I am thinking
No children...yet!
Yes I've been working on downsizing it a bit, then it is mine until I have a good one of him with the trophyAfrank said:Great photo, someone needs to take this for an avatar.

No problem with sappy posts, kissing his ring made me weep...but I am an old woman LOLwhittashau said:No they don't. I've seen pictures of Nibbles playing games with Agnoli's little girl on twitter though so it's probably on the agenda at some point.
Was nice to see the emotion from Agnoli today actually. Shows the human side of cycling that often gets forgotten with all the clinic stuff and whatnot.
Gee, what a sappy post....
