Wiggins began to wind down his road career with the 2016 Olympic Games team pursuit squad in view, and made a successful return to the boards as England won gold at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
Bradley Wiggins's quest to win a first Commonwealth Games gold medal remains on course after England qualified second in the men's team pursuit on day one of Glasgow 2014.
Wiggins, his Olympic-winning team-mate in Beijing Ed Clancy, Steven Burke and Andy Tennant posted a 3-59.249 inside the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome, two seconds slower than Australia.
