Bradley Wiggins is probably the skinniest, sickest looking cyclist in the ProTour. He always looks like he's about to break in half.

I'm not denying he's a really strong rider, but then all the big GC contenders are. I just can't help but feel like he's ruining his health by pushing so hard.

To Wiggins' credit on the post-Roubaix shot, it was taken with a wide-angle lens so his legs are distorted and abnormally long. But still...

... I didn't watch the stage. Was that really Wiggins just winning a field sprint or am I asleep right now?

Yes he was. And he's gained upper-body weight.
I had this sudden doubt as to whether he was maybe reconsidering going back to track for the olympics, but apparently not. I guess he finally decided that being a boring GC contender was really unattractive, and opted instead to show us the most interesting, awesomely weird-looking sprint technique in a long while.

I don't know about whether he gained any upper body mass, but he definitely don't think he's given up being a GC contender... he's my pick for the Tour. Go Wiggo go!

Also the fact that it was a hilly course and a (apparently) windy day didn't help any of the (fat) real sprinters. The sprinting field was something like 40 of the best climbers, at that point pretty much whoever was at the front in the last 1k was going to win. Case in point: Paolo Tirolongo got 2nd, and apart from a gifted stage in last year's Giro, he hasn't won a thing in his pro life.

Also also, I'm sticking with Wiggins for the Tour as well, unless his bird-bones break on impact again.
