Default Team Sky

Did anyone think it was interesting that Millar, Wiggins and Cav were
all distancing themselves from Brailsford's Team Sky setup...? I didn't
seriously think that Cav would go for it as he needs a proven lead out
train, but I thought it was interesting that Millar and Wiggins were
playing down any involvement.

Cheers,

Hmmm. Cynical old me, I suspect the involvement of Money and
therefore the likelihood of cards being played very close to chests.
After all, if Wiggins makes the podium this year his value to any team
will increase substantially.

Hasn't David Millar got money invested in Garmin?

Yes, it's effectively his team. One of the reasons he gave for distancing
himself from Team Sky.
