no, but i hope you gave him a pie and a pint ๐Ÿ™‚ he needs some feeding up!
the man's already a legend, could potentially be the british cyclist ever.
seriously, where did you meet him?

I was in Wagamama noodle bar in Manchester yesterday afternoon, when in he walked with Mrs Wiggo. He drinks red wine, Wiggo-fact fans.

Anyway, as we were leaving I nipped over to his table, said congratulations and shook his (surprisingly big) hand. He said "thanks very much". It was a magical moment, I shall never wash that hand again.

I've done a few races with Bradley Wiggins.
That's my claim to fame...

[img] [/img]Not yesterday but a week ago on the Rue de Rivoli. Here he is on lap one just behind a smiling Cav

He laughed at our 'Go Wiggo Go' and 'Make it 5 Cav'banners

I hope you made clear those 'congrats' were from everyone on STW ๐Ÿ˜€

How tall is he? He's only a couple of kg lighter than me, so presumably a lot taller?

He was sitting down. Got to be a good six foot though.

Just looked at Wikipedia, which says he's 6'3". So 4" taller than me but 4kg lighter.
