    Cool.
    Obsession? It's him, he's probably got a bloody life out of cycling.

    But wasn't the mods about shitty scooters and pills? Or was Quadrophenial all lies?

    Maybe not him but the image is cool-anyone who can carry off black socks in the peloton and dish it out deserves respect.I like the art work-anyone want to step forward to claim authorship?I`m guessing its similar to the overpriced and soon to be remaindered Sky mugs (want them BTW).

    he comes across as a bit of an arse. Well a lot of an arse. When the French TV guy was talking to him in French yesterday at the team presentation and he said something like "no point speaking to you as you don't speak English" he was rude and a typical chav Brit abroad. It wouldn't have hurt to have learnt a simple French sentence along the lines of "sorry can't speak french but it's going to be a great tdf".

    You can imagine the Sky PR team just hitting their heads against a wall when this was going on.

    The reaction of Cav to this was a joy to behold.

    As much as I would like to see him win - Uncool.

    Do it where it counts - On the road.
    A win with a bit of panache - Ice cool.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    He can speak fluent French, check the team presentation out.

    The French journos generally like him and often 'get' his sense of humour. I suspect that was part of an ongoing saga. However, he did make some comment recently about not doing anymore interviews in French.

    Cool bloke, Mr Wiggins.

    Not a cool image, sorry. His eyes are dead, no life in that image.

    Sorry, just my opinion.

    Nothing wrong with Wiggy's French or his sense of humour.
