  • He is not a 'tool', I think i/you would be at least a little bit pissed off if that happened to you, in fact I'm suprised he didn't thump someone. Stop being a nerd.

  • He was hardly showing an arrogant attitude! Use a better selection of words. Being pissed off is completely different to being arrogant (he didn't belittle anyone, didn't swagger, didn't mouth off).

    Also, that was a pretty calm response to be honest, considering he elected to be dropped from the road team to focus on the timetrial and then his bike failing is the reason why weeks of build up go to waste and he misses out on a medal. Most would dothesame. Stop being such a goody goody, churchy.

  • What was he reaching for on that side of his bike near his bottom bracket? Doesn't make sense - he should have been working on the other side of his bike if it was chain or shifter related.

  • Your in a title position, youve busted your ass over months to get to that position, you get on some equipment and its not setup correctly, fails and costs you the race. Yea, I would say that reaction was justified. £10K bike worth nada in this instance.

  • @molyneux1000 Osymetric chainrings dude..thats the problem...serious dumping issues ...I know cause I use em

  • @maskofsan1ty why so opposed to it though? It happens all the time, chill out dude.

  • @koko56 Pointing out the obvious!

  • @maskofsan1ty what?

  • I understand how aggravating that is, but the smart thing to do would have been to keep pedaling or coasting at least, until his team car caught up. Where the hell was it anyway?

  • No team support cars at 2009 Worlds? WTF?

    (I had to look it up. Apparently, Wiggins was about to be overtaken by Gustav Larson so his support car was forced to remain behind the other rider. With such a significant delay, Brad knew he'd lost any hope of a good result here.)

  • $10,000 bike thrown ? it's like he he throw a money XD

  • if you don't want that bike i want it =) it's only worth $10000+ and you just throw it on the ground
