austpicious: isay: I cannot say how proud I am of this man and this moment in British sporting history. To not only see a Briton win, but to do it clean and to see a British team dominate the race and do it with class and style and the real grace that is so often missing from modern sport, well that is something wonderful to behold. Chapeau M. Wiggins. Chapeau Sky Procycling. And especially chapeau Dave Brailsford, you’ve made a lot of jaded Britons very happy and proud. Thank you. ~ Well said, and bravo! Cloggy :— A bloody good show. How often do you see the Yellow Jersey working hard, leading out the team’s sprinter onto the Champes Elysee instead of waving to the crowd. That WAS history.
