    I smell the despicable odour of drugs in the house.

    Wiggins smashed that field and beat arguably the best TT in the world in Fabian Cancellara by 50 seconds. What makes this even more ridiclous is Cancellara has held the lead and the Olympics aren't far away so he would be in red hot form. Beating him is one thing but to have 2 riders from the 1 team flog him???

    Froome has done nothing in his career to jump up and jag a 2nd in the Vuelta last year from out of the clouds. Now he is backing it up in the TDF. This all after only finishing 5th in the TT at the Commonwealth Games in 2010. Massive improvement if you ask me.

    Wiggins has gone from a lesser light in the GC brigade who never quite cut it to not only beating but dominating the rest of them.

    Smells suspect to me

    the clinic over at cyclingnews is a good read at the moment...would appear to be what is pissing wiggins and the rest of sky off as well.

    this crap about Wiggins is pissing me off a little and smacks of the old anyone beating Cadel is on the juice routine

    British cycling has been coming along very, very well in recent years - starting from success on the track and now the road - it's not like this is the female Chinese swim team

    Wiggins is a triple gold medalist on the track, the bloke is immense and has a very long and distinguished career behind him

    so get over the sour grapes and conspiracies and just appreciate the incredible ride this bloke is doing

    1. Wiggins is good.
    2. Wiggins isnt Australian.
    3. ?????????????
    4. Wiggins must be on drugs.

    Didnt you know the only clean athletes the world has ever seen have been Ian Thorpe and Cathy Freeman.

    How is this about someone beating Cadel must be on the Juice ?? How is this about the success of British Track tiders now being transcended to road racing??

    There is no conspiracy theory

    2009 and 2010 TDF's were the pinnacle for elite road racers. This is where everyone would turn up at their best. Fabian Cancellara blitzed Wiggins in all the TT's

    2011 Can't compare as Wiggins crashed out before a TT

    Now you are trying to tell me that a bloke who has consistently been beaten by arguably the best TT in the world at present is able to now not only beat but thrash a bloke who is in top notch form and nothing is suspect??

    This is the same bloke who has dropped 8-9 kgs from his frame recently and is now able to thrash Cancellara in the TT.
    Remember we are talking about an elite athlete here in peak physical condition. Dropping 8-9kgs is only gonna come from a small amount of toning and reduction mainly in muscle mass. Quality TT's have muscle mass. How is Wiggins dropping muscle mass and now improving times?? That defies logic.

    TT is about technique and power generation from the muscles. FC's technique and BW's technique ain't changed much because they were already at the top level of the game anyway nd whatever changes would be miniscule results wise. The only way you can do this is to increase your power generation by developing muscles. Wiggins is going the opposite way by reducing his muscles to allow him to be better going up Mountains. The whole thing defies logic.

    Wiggo's time trialling should be getting worse while his climbing should improve by dropping weight. His climbing is improving but his TT is actually not getting worse but has improved out of sight.

    if they are doping why are some of them still shit? lofkvist etc

    brailsford has a pretty well known anti-doping stance, millar being frozen out and the like. the peak of the GB track teams at the last two 'lympics is pretty amazing.
