    You guys all seem to think that the Olympics is the big goal for next year ... I doubt it is ... Cav has records to beat in a world bigger than Good Old Blighty ...
    +1. Would any world class tennis player put the Olympics ahead of Wimbledon? Likewise would a top footballer put the Olympics ahead of the World Cup?

    Despite being a big football fan I couldn't tell you who won the football - or tennis for that matter - at the 2008 or 2004 Olympics, but I bet the majority of cycling fans can name the last two Olympic champions at least.

    Winning Olympic gold in London. If Cav could only win one race next year I bet he'd pick that.

    He'll have plenty chances to win the green jersey, but, unless Rio produce a sprinter friendly course, this is realistically his only chance to win an Olympic gold on the road.

    Just seen that Azerbaijan are one of 6 bids for the 2020 Games.

    Nope. There's no way Evans is going to win BOTH Yellow and Green next year.

    Send EBH in the breakaways, GreenEdge chase the breakaway down and Cav sprints for the stage. GreenEdge don't chase and EBH has a pretty good shot at winning from a small break. What could possibly go wrong.....
    just what i was thinking.

    I don't see why Sky should have to do all the pulling. There are sprinters on other teams, who will genuinely fancy their chances - inc Renshaw, Goss, Greipel, Kittell, Boss etc. Sky will do their share, but won't be the same machine HTC were. As G has said, with Wiggo, the best the team can hope to do is keep him safe and delivery him to the bottom of the final climb in good shape.........after that it's up to him. The Vuelta was very unusual, in that he had Froome by his side, even when the going got really tough. Personally, I don't see Froome reaching those heights again.

    I dont think GreenEdge have a GC guy signed at the moment* so i would have thought their eggs will all be in the Goss basket.

    *Judging by this page - of course they could yet sign someone else

    Sweet cavoline? Although im not sure about the 'hands, touching hands, reaching out, touching me touching you' bit

    Not sure what is so wrong with 'i want to ride my bicycle', can vary the words etc...
