British Tour de France winners are a bit like buses. Stephen Send a noteboard - 22/07/2013 12:24:34 PM

You wait a hundred years for one to win, then two come along at once.

Jokes out of the way, it was a great victory by Froome. Also, I know he's from Kenya, I find it a bit funny how the British media claimed him as one of their own so quickly. He led the Tour nearly the whole way through so his victory was deserved.

Quitana was also impressive. he gave a great performance for such a young rider, and was a surprise coming from such a non-traditional cycling stronghold.
