Froome is 31, so talk of him winning for the next 3,4 years is a little premature and optimistic. Obviously, you can win the tour into your mid-30s, but not that many riders have the discipline to do so, especially with a young family to miss out on. On the other hand, maybe weeks away from his wife helps keep things fresh. And let's be honest, babies are annoying.
