    I'm pretty sure he bullied the fuck out of Wiggo but no one was calling for Sutton's head when Wiggo was winning the Tour and Gold...

    I do think their selection process is a bit fucked up, but I don't see how the fact none of the men finished the race necessarily means they shouldn't have been sent in the first place. The offer of a ride around in the car was laughable though.

    I guess I need to read Nicole's book.

  • What was galling was the fact the men got all the best, newest bikes, even the reserves

  • The fact she was binned on 'performance' grounds and the performances against France held up as examples whilst she was faster than their 1st rider in the last 9 races head to head does suggest she might not have actually been the problem.

  • I wouldn't recommend it. Early on she complains about someone who made petty complaints about her. It may be justified, but the rest of the book is full of her making petty complaints about all and sundry, with no appreciation of the irony.

    And Victoria's as well.
