I really don't. He can still be associated with British Cycling and benefit from all of that, but I really don't think it is healthy for British cycling (in the general sense) to have all the top British riders in one pro-team when there are so many now coming through. Cavendish in particular doesn't really seem to fit into the overall plan of Sky, and he would be much better off in a team that was tactically dedicated to supporting his ambitions. He doesn't need much in the way of developing, although as he gets older, he will have to change the way he races gradually.
Spot on. Look at Steve Cummings, another British rider, Millar who won a stage at the TDF. Neither of these men are at Sky and a good thing too. Too many cooks spoil the broth. (Interesting that Valverde, Berty and Rodriguez represent three separate teams which represents a much more realistic, and potentially successful future for riders of any nation being as they are each in those separate teams).
It's undoubtedly been said since but Froome needs to leave too, unless a team like that in the TDF can be fathomed to support him instead of Bradley, which is highly unlikely given the fact that Wiggins should really be given the chance to defend the TDF; something which I think will be the plan.
Funny situation methinks, when the reason one man wins is largely down to the brilliance of one super domestique, but that man himself may find it hard to win himself because he doesn't have the brilliance of his own support to support him! Clone Chris Froome I say.
