He wears his lack of media-training on his sleeve which is easy to find endearing, so it's not surprising - refreshing even - that he sometimes puts a foot askew with a microphone shoved in his face

Sorry ,but i heard them refer to him as World Champion 3 or 4 times.

Me too - the comments on this thread had me a wee bit puzzled.

It was a comment about a daft discussion that ran for three pages or so earlier in this thread, in that after Sunday's race the BBC referred to Lizzie Armitstead as a champion. Like Martin, she only won silver and therefore runner-up

And now I'm not.

bradwiggins
I suggested it may be the way to go to give cyclists more protection legally I involved In an accident

bradwiggins
I wasn't on me soap box CALLING, was asked what I thought #myopiniondoesntcountformuch
