Might not even consider it a sport at all.

I think cycling has become slightly more popular since Wiggins I'd imagine.
Exactly it's best known for the general public here in the UK for Armstrong and doping, to be fair its nigh on impossible to erase doping from the sport, due to the demands on the body.

Well with both Wiggins and Froome being the first two British winners of the TDF, the sport is at its height of popularity here in the UK, but will only achieve this level of popularity as long as British riders continue to do well.
