Lance saga frustrates Wiggins

Tour de France champion Bradley Wiggins is frustrated the present generation of riders have been left to answer questions about the state of cycling in the wake of the Lance Armstrong affair.

Speaking at the launch of the 2013 Tour, Wiggins said: “I think there is a lot of anger from most people within the sport, it is a sport I love and have always loved.

“It is a shame that cycling is being dragged through this again really, not a shame that he has been caught — when you get older, you start to realise Father Christmas doesn’t exist and it is the same with Lance.
