"(more than any other Englishman ever)"

erm, he's not english tho, is he... [and i speak as a fellow manxman]

You know how it works, he won 4 Tour levels (Christ, I just called Tour de France stages 'levels' brilliant!), he was born and grew up near England, he lives in Manchester (sometimes), he is therefore English.

It's the rules... anyway, he races for Colombians. Well, he did, until the Wii "Slaughtered the Chances of English Racing Ace!" Damn, I didn't use that as a headline. I am slipping.

Cheers

Tim

PS: I take your point.
