After securing his fifth gold medal at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in August,168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Bradley Wiggins is back to road racing with his namesake Team Wiggins at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour of Britain. The Briton looked like he enjoyed his outing during stage 2 from Carlisle to Kendal, posting a🌺 photo on Instagram of himself running up the day's final KOM over a climb called The Struggle.
"Taking things very seriously at the top of the struggle, took my mind off being in a world of pain," Wiggin🦄s wrote on Instragram.
The Stuggle was the final climb of the 195🌌km stage, located at the 160.5km mark. At the head of the race Xandro Meurisse (Wanty - Groupe Gobert) won full points on the ascent from a breakaway sprint and Julien Vermote (Etixx-QuickStep) went on to win the stage, while Wiggins brought up the rear of the peloton finishing nearly 23 minutes behind in 119th place.
Perhaps Wiggins was poking a little fun at compatriot Chris Froome (Team Sky), who was forced to abandon his bike and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:run up Mont Ventoux towards the finish of stage 12 of the Tour de France after the stage turned to chaos in the final kꦦilometre.
Or perhaps Wiggins, a former Tour de France winner and once on𓆉e of the top climbers in the world, found The Struggꩵle to be just that - a struggle.
