So now I think I might actually get into this twitter lark.

Who is worth following in cycling? Suggestions please.

Michelle Cound obviously
David Miller
Wiggins (does he twitter?)
There used to be a great piss take of Sagen which got removed unfortunately.
Does Cavendish still do one? (heard a great quote from him about farting and nearly following through in the middle of the peleton..)

Cav's FB is good for a laugh - I got into a spat with him for taking the piss (it was about the aformentioned follow thorugh which was after he had ahd a bad meal).

He got sick of me asking totally random questions about his old Corsa.

Kittel is worth folling at the

Zabriskie is good value as is VDV.

Vaughters posts as DV1967 or something like that on his and on the forums - he likes ot wind up the chemtrailers on Cyclingnews.

Vaughters
Festina girl can be good at times
ITV cycling is useful for knowing when highlights are going to be on
Ned Boulting/Matt Rendell
Jen Voght - some very random thoughts on there
Dave Millar doesn't tweet that often but is good when he does

I follow Lance Armstrong out of morbid fascination only. Although its probably all tweeted by his PR.

Tweeter Sagan was during the TdF last year - don't think it was removed, but the tweeter certainly said they were giving it a rest.

Alex Dowsett? Fran Millar? inrng? velocast?

During July then Michelle Cound and Cath Wiggins should be... interesting...

Brad Wiggins and Cav seem to have regular slapdowns from their teams PR heavies, but in between those periods they can be hilarious.

"TwitterSagan" was brilliant - I can't help but think of Nibali as "Spaghetti Man Mr. Nibbles"

Wiggo stopped tweeting after that shitstorm in the tour last year, dont think hes back?

also @velocast, Shane Stokes, John Galloway, @irishpeloton

theres also Festina girl as mentioned and @ucioverlord, but they get pretty tiresome after a while I found. I want to know the truth and I also despise McQuaid, but I am also interested in, you know, the actual sporting element too.

Actually, I've just noticed that @cathwiggins is no longer on Twitter, and bradwiggins can only be seen by followers. Ah well.
