Note the word 'himself' in your comment.
I wasn't being sarcastic if that's what you were thinking.

I didn't. I just can't see why you have a problem with it. |

Smoker. Wow. Add that to my list of reasons agains Bradley Wiggins.
Thats probably Wacko's point.....
Although maybe its more a point of proof rather than hate towards Wiggo.

Smoking one or two cigs every now and then is hardly going to kill him, I am more a risk of smoking killing me from passive smoking from my parents as they are heavy smokers and despite it hurting my nose when I am around people who smoke, they don't stop!But anyway it only really causes harm if you smoke heavily everyday, which I am very sure Wiggo certainly doesn't do.

It's habbit which passed down through generations, poeple are just blind to the damage it causes and it is seen as a sociable think to do. Something that you can do to fit in with others around you.
Of course for people who don't smoke they can't see the point in it and in a way neither can I.

I was a smoker..a quite long period also.
Now I am free of that 3,5 years. It's damn hard to quit.
I still dont hate smokers..I just know how good it can be with coffey, with beer.
3,5 half years ..and I still know that very well. I dont give my friend a lecture. How dangerous soking can be, and how much easyer are the mornings without a pack of smokes what you did yesterday..they know that. It is just damn hard to quit.
Still smokers top athlets are aces for me ..despite all that. They are still so good...and kind of wasting talent group. Patrick Sjöberg, Diego Maradona (wake up Messi fans..he was real king), James Hunt, Kareem-Abdul Jabbar |

Ridicolous discussion.
If Wiggins wants to smoke one cigarette after winning everything he ever wanted to win, who cares? It's not going to kill him, it's not going to make him a worse cyclist. And best of all, it's not hurting anyone else (unless they are close to him  ).
It's stupid to smoke, yes, but no reason to go crazy about it. |

I sense you long for a smoke, I hope this discussion didn't get you hung on tobacco again  |

Ah. I just won the biggest race out there. I feel like burning my lungs with tons of poisonous chemicals.

Yeah...
This is a bit off-topic, no?
Seeing Wiggins smoke a cigarette may be news in August, but then again, not quite relevant, as CrueTrue already mentioned.
Isn't there anything else going on we can go bananas over? |

Edit: And to be aat least a bit on topic, Peter Sagan made public his probable schedule for the rest of the season, many classics and many possible points ahead of him. Of course the calendar can change later...
He could also go to the Beijing...

Thor Hushovd is not going to race again for the rest of the season. Worst year ever.
