Bradley Wiggins has confirmed he will ride as part of Team Wiggins at the Tour of Britain, which starts next month. It will be his eighth participation in the race, although he has only won it once, in 2013.
“I’m looking forward to the next thing now which is the Tour of Britain that’s in preparation for the European Championships,” he said to reporters at the Revolution track meeting in Derby.
The 35 year old says he probably wont get any results in his home race as he is training for a different aspect of cycling, but still enjoys riding the race.
“It’s taken a long time to get my head around the fact that I’m not a road rider anymore and [the track] is what I do now,” he added. “With anything I do on the road now I won’t be getting the same results as a few years ago.
“The training’s quite different but I look forward to the Tour of Britain as it’s always nice to ride round the country.The race has got bigger every year and the attendances are fantastic.”
