About The Author

Sir Bradley Wiggins

Born in Belgium in 1980 and raised in London, Sir Bradley Wiggins is the greatest cyclist the UK has produced. He won five Olympic gold medals and eight World Championship titles in a long and distinguished career.

In 2012 he became the first Briton to win the Tour de France. Just ten days later he won Time Trial gold at the London Olympics then cemented his National Treasure status by being voted BBC Sports Personality of the Year. The boom in cycling in the UK is often attributed to his exploits in that momentous year.

Wiggins was knighted for services to cycling in 2013 and broke The Hour record in 2015. He retired from professional cycling at the end of 2016.

He lives in London.
