If Chris Froome can win his third Tour this week (and second back-to-back) he's got to be another under-the-radar shout surely? Especially as he showed determination and a turn of speed off the bike that Dame Kelly Holmes would be proud of

Actually, could take a real risk and lay him E/W now.....

I guess he is good looking in a feminine sort of way (not jealous much, honest) but I didn't realise that he had such good times over all three sprints. I think his times are some kind of record - though if Usain ever takes the 400 seriously it won't stand for long.

I do understand it all a lot better now. No idea what the answer is, but at least I now understand the facts.
Rio shall be interesting to say the least - especially in the 400m.”
