Learn moreOn 22 July 2012 Bradley Wiggins became the first British man ever to win the Tour de France. In an instant 'Wiggo' became a national hero. Ten days later, having swapped his yellow jersey for the colours of Team GB, he won Olympic gold in the time trial, adding to his previous six medals to become the nation's most decorated Olympian of all time.
Outspoken, honest, intelligent and fearless, Wiggins has been hailed as the peopleโs champion. In My Time he tells the story of the remarkable journey that led to him winning the worldโs toughest race. He opens up about his life on and off the bike, about the personal anguish that has driven him on and what itโs like behind the scenes at Team Sky: the brutal training regimes, the sacrifices and his views on his teammates and rivals. He talks too about his anger at the spectre of doping that pursues his sport, how he dealt with the rush of taking Olympic gold and above all what it takes to be the greatest.
Bradley Wiggins grew up in Kilburn in London. He is the first Briton to win the Tour de France, a feat that Sir Chris Hoy described as 'the greatest sporting achievement' by a British athlete, a winner of seven Olympic medals including four golds spanning four games, and seven World Track Championships. He is a columnist for the Guardian and author of In Pursuit of Glory.
