    Good at riding a bike. Like giving medals out for eating. Or breathing. Or walking up stairs.

    Cycling is exactly like eating. Good comparison.

    Getting people pissed then making them climb really steep stairs would be quite a good spectator sport to be fair.

    Everyone can ride a bike. Everyone can eat. Sports take skill. Cycling does not.

    Total legend and an all round decent guy.......even the French public are warming to him...even if some tossers over hear still cant recognise the magnitude of all he has achieved.....when you think about it with Wiggo crashing out in 2011 and Froomey in 2014 we could have easily won the last 6 tours as a nation...and Sky...

    Yates has been the man of the tour for me. Froome is almost expected these days, pure class.

    Yates is a fantastic prospect, much as I love Team Sky it was a great move for the brothers to go to Orica........British cycling is in great shape, had a great last 10 years and has an even better future

    Froome is something special. Best British sportsperson of the moment. this year's tour has been the best to watch for some time and the change of tactics by Team Sky have been refreshing and no one could respond

    Assuming you are just on a wind up but just in case
    Everyone can walk run and jump - those olympians dont need skill
    and as for rowing a boat - why people think Sir Steve Redgrave was special escapes me
