has there been an announcement and what is his body fat %

no unfortunately (surely SW could issue a press release saying Wigan is backing Wiggins?), and according to press reports - 4%!!!

He is reported to have a resting heart rate of 35bpm.

He is one of the greatest athletes and sportsmen in the world. For me he is up there with the likes of Federer, Bolt and Messi and winning the Tour would cement that status.

To add a Tour win to his Olympic and World gold medals would be a truly immense achievement.

Agree 100%

The photos are from the Guardian who got access to Team Sky the other day so don't know if they are on the Faceache page.

Here's an even better one from Cycling Weekly:

I wonder if he has a 'John Bull' puncture repair kit in there ?

I can just see his dad following him with a bowl of water so he can work out where the puncture is in the inner-tube.

10,000 calories a day is about the norm.
