LONDON (Reuters) - Chris Froome celebrated his second Tour de France triumph with a bacon sandwich on Monday before chewing over the appetising prospect of a rare grand tour double in Spain next month.

The 30-year-old Briton, enjoying the release of being able to eat what he fancies after three weeks of rigorous discipline, revealed that a bid to win back-to-back grand tours "could be on the cards" as he leans towards a crack at the Vuelta.
