and too fucking right too. i really feel that this was our gold more than theirs. Wiggins is one of us. he knows cycling, he's given a lot to it, and he's a sound bloke.
tomorrow i'll be grinning at every cyclist i see on the commute. the rest of the country can be pleased and i'm glad that they will all celebrate Brad, but they won't have felt the joy we did and frankly they don't deserve to. we didn't go to/follow the race because it was a good chance for a GB medal. we are passionate about cycling. the TdF meant more to us, but to get the opportunity to go and shout on Brad on home soil was very special.
