Just 7 more stages till the Tour de France is completed with two Brits topping the standings.

But can Bradley Wiggins hold on to the Yellow Jersey and win the Tour and be the first Brit ever to win it?

He has a seven day holding of the jersey.....

I think he will do it....

Go on Bradley!

Yes, unless something unusual happens to him, the TDF is in his pocket. Nibali will take at least another minute on the next trial and Evans is not keeping up with the pace on the hills.

If Contador or Schleck was involved, the fight would have been much, much better.

Another stage down and he remains the leader...just six to go, technically five as the final stage is a precession

Stage 17 will be the decider, a short stint with a cat 1 finish. if no one is 1'30 ahead of him at that day, it's won for him.

What he said was "if someone was to throw stuff at players at a football match they would have CCTV and be thrown out and/or arrested. At the TDF people can touch you as you ride by" So far this tour he has been hit by a flare and half the riders have been stopped by some twat throwing tacks/pins in the road.
I think he was highlighting the difference between the 2 sports.
And as for it being a hobby and not a sport :banghead: I can't think of a single footballer playing now who has half the guts these guys have. Griple (prob spelt his name wrong) had an accident and dislocated his sholder, got a team mate to pull his arm and put it back in. Got back on his bike a nearly won the day. A footballer with a dislocated sholder would need a team of medics air ambulance and private hospital in Milan to recover.

"It's sad. Those are the type of things we have to put up with as cyclists. I think people take that for granted sometimes, just how close they can get to us.

"If that happened in a football stadium, or wherever, you'd be arrested, CCTV. But we're out there, quite vulnerable at times, very close to the public on climbs.

Grew up on the same Kilburn council estates as I did, did old Wiggo. Same age as me too. We weren't best buds but would have done the old head nod back in the day.

He's not a bad lad at all.

This mother fucker is rooting for him. 8)
