    Yup, not there. Hopefully, he's seen sense and got out.

    According to Ned Boulting on Twitter he has. He got some grief on twitter for not commenting on the current situation, but I think that's a tad unfair. He has done a couple of interviews and he is allowed some time away from the sport that is his job.

    It also happened just when his tax affairs were in the Mail
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    thought he closed it a few days before.

    Given the Mail has gone after every sports star/celebrity (wasn't Chris Hoy previously targetted?) pretty sure the tax thing is the least of his worries given it's legal and common practice.

    It's not like he was a regular tweeter anyway...

    Well done Wiggo. I cant stand Twitter, never been on it, everyone wanting their 15 minutes of fame. I like Wiggo as much as the next guy but i dont need to know what hes had for dinner or if hes taking a dump.

    Twitter is very valuable for somebody like me looking to market something, otherwise meh, it's a bag of sh*t full of people talking sh*t.

    It's also very good for people who are in the know to let us mere mortals know all the latest facts such as the surprise team a top cyclist is about to sign for. On that basis I'm amazed Insideinfo hasn't got an account.

    You should try it, you could become the Duncan Jenkins of cycling. I can imagine Sean Yates turning up on your doorstep demanding you reveal your sources.
