Sir Bradley Wiggins is set to complete his transition from bike to boat as he makes his competitive rowing debut at next month's British Indoor Championships.
The five-time Olympic cycling champion and 2012 Tour de France winner retired from cycling in December 2016 but is due to take on the 2,000m indoor rowing race at London's Olympic Velodrome on Saturday, 9 December.
The 37-year-old, who is Great Britain’s most decorated Olympian, was reported in the Daily Mail regarding why he took up the sport: "I might be being a bit delusional but the times suggest I'm not. I took up rowing when I retired just to keep fit, but my numbers started getting quite good, so I've started taking it up professionally now and getting coached seven days a week."
