Not a legend in that sense, just a very down to earth woman. She called Bradley a tw*t at one point to describe his single mindedness with respect to training, it was nice to see some honesty like that because it must be difficult to live with a top-flight athlete sometimes and great that the program makers left it in.

Very useful on a bike, she used to race on the track.
Interesting article on her in current issue of 'Rouleur'.

Nice, but the most expensive magazine in the world.

Ftfy.
Quite possibly but if someone is kind enough to give you a subscription, are you going to toss it over to the nearest doctor/dental waiting room for nobody to appreciate?!!!
You only get that by going private 3BM, not for us plebs on the NHS

Really loved it, real insight into a top pro, and they can be 'horrible' people to live with.
The man cave was good - but mine would be a bunker - a posh glass shed....
- did see the main bike come out of the garage though - all the posh cars outside (not in the garage) - what a lad...
His wife was dead well grounded, was probably the person that gets stuff organised in the house, like lots of us, but she has a pro cyclist to sort out, not an amateur. He can be great, but in bike mode a 'twat' - that side is the business side.
Dave and Shane let us into the other side, Shane more so. "when does this go out.... blah blah, oh last year was probably his best" - the year he crashed out ! Too late now. It did show me why Brad never made it earlier to the top because like most British cyclists, they think they are the business - get into continental racing and you get hammered - seen this for years myself.
This was a warts and all, and it was very good.
Gutted as Wayne was actually knocked off his bike within a mile of his flat a few weeks ago.
Nice to see the shots in Wills shop.
