Millar grew up in Scotland to age 6...to be fair he has pretty strong links. Didn't wegelius grew up totally in the UK. I agree the Kenyan hasn't the vaguest connection to UK racing. Who is Belgian? 0 -
I'm guessing Wiggins.Le Blaireau (1)0

which cycling racing scene did they develop in as an amatuer, which coaches, which clubs...if it was all in the UK then they are British in most people's eyes and Brits can take the credit for it...Froome...is a bit of a sciandri type situation...Dario Cioni is Scottish then0

I thought Wiggo was born in Gent. It was a question on Eggheads last week!0

Wiggins was born in Gent when his dad was racing over there, grew up in Maida Vale, London though, raced for Archer CC as junior didn't he?0
