    Sorry for the linguistic pun but thought it was interesting.

    Who else might it be?

    Not Wiggo……

    I doubt it’ll be Wiggins. His settled family life notwithstanding, he’s targeting Rio as part of the GB team. At his age that will be a stretch, so I doubt he’d want to rock the boat by leaving what is effectively GB cycling’s road racing team.

    Also talk Wiggo could be the man, my money is on someone younger, whyo knows Chavez might have an influence on one of these young Colombians, betancur and co. Smile

    I doubt anyone had the money to buy out Porte contract and then pay him wages. Porte has proven he is a GC contender. How fast you people forget last year when he was given the chance to lead. He prob could have been top 5in TDF last 3 years!!!!!!!!!!! if he was leader and looked after.
    He WON paris -nice as leader, 2nd to froome im crit. inter, THEN 2nd in Paris Vaesco TO QUINTANA, beating in GC HENAO, CONTADOR, SPILAK, BETANCUR, PERAUD….but you right he is a GC contender LOL.
    AND this year 4th in TDU behind 3 of the FORM riders in the world this year, GERRANS, EVANS, ULISSI that looks pretty good form, BEFORE HE GOT SICK.
    str8 after that 2ND to VALVEVERDE in Veulkta Andalucía, also the form rider in world ATM..beat Mollema , Lois Leon, kangert, Navarro, leaders or future leaders.
    I like to know why people don’t think it will be wiggo ?

    I think calling Thomas a GC
    I think calling Thomas a GC contender may get you prosecuted under Trades Descriptions. He may be if he could stay on his bike for more than 1/2 stage.
