Bradley Wiggins, Amgen Tour of California, Stage 1
Bradley Wiggins could switch his focus to the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow if he does not race the Tour de France, according to British Cycling's technical director, Shane Sutton.
Sutton told Cycling Weekly recently that Wiggins has been training on the track and would welcome the chance to race on the boards for England at the end of July if team Sky overlooks him for the Tour. He had been under world record pace during individual pursuit efforts in Manchester that British Cycling staff managed. Wiggins raced last week at the Tour de Suisse, but pulled out early after a crash.
