Apparently he joined quite recently.

Normally don't pay attention, but he seems quite amusing.

    Cav on twitter - that's got to be dangerous.

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.

    Lazy cycling journalists everywhere have been dreaming of this. An absolute godsend for them. I give it three months.

    Agree, pretty entertaining. Think it was last week he commented that he was punching above his weight regarding his current girlfriend - and there is always hope for every bloke......

    He was on Twitter a couple of years ago, the account closed down a few months after I found it. He wasn't using his real name.

    He also used Mark Renshaw's account a couple of times during the Tour.
    Don't think he's FakeCav, although I could be wrong, but FakeCav (also highly entertaining) is often a little behind in his news.

    Daft thing is, I feel a little bit of a stalker following people on twitter, especially the delectable Mark.

    Still, good practice for the Vendee.

    Just read through his tweets, seems far more entertaining than many - might start following.

    What with his racist outburst at the tour a few years ago, and now this. It's really unfair, these poor people are suffering from a form of leprosy.

    Too right, the French are clearly 'unclean'

    Why's he complaining about having a ginger bodyguard anyway - isn't that what Renshaw is?

    He won't say anything bad about his future Green-EDGE team mates.

    Hasn't he got naturally curly hair? A bit rich complaining about a day walker if he does...

    I'd completely stopped looking at Twitter feeds, but I quite like Cav's: it's refreshingly candid!

    &, Iain, do you know something we don't about Cav's team next year? I thought he'd just renewed his contract after all the hoo hah last year, but was that in advance of a contract expiry this year? Or is the Sky route an option?
    (Or is this just speculation that I'm taking seriously?)

    His contract is up a the end of the year. GreenEdge have been woo-ing him, taking him for dinner etc.

    But I'm just messing, no idea where he'll go. But part of me loves the idea of British star going to Australian team.

    The rumour mill suggests that BMC are very keen. Andy Rihs may not only be prepared to take him to dinner, but also let him cop a feel too.

    Tusher. Go to Lush and get some henna! Smells nice and isn't chemical. Just get used to wearing cling-film while it sets!! I use it all the time. :D
