For 60 minutes this summer, the British public stopped what they were doing switched on their radios, their TVs, refreshed their Twitter feeds & followed Bradley Wiggins`s attempt to break one of sport`s most gruelling records: The Hour. The premise is simple enough: how far can you cycle in one hour. But it is thought to be one of the toughest events an athlete can endure, both physically & psychologically. Eddy Merckx, cycling`s uber-champ, called it the hardest thing he ever did. Wiggins, like many before him, discovered the unique pain of pushing yourself as hard as you can for 60 minutes. In this revealing book, Bradley Wiggins takes you behind the scenes of his record attempt. From planning to preparation, to training to execution, Bradley shares his thoughts on his sacrifices, his heroes, & the people who have supported him along the way as well as what`s to come as he heads towards the twilight of his stellar career. Supported by stunning photography, My Hour is a fitting celebration of one of Britain`s best-loved sportsmen in his finest hour. ...

On 22 July 2012 Bradley Wiggins made history as the first British cyclist to win the Tour de France. Ten days later at the London Olympic Games he won the time trial to become his country`s most decorated Olympian. In an instant ` Wiggo`, the kid from Kilburn, was a national hero. Two years previously, however, Wiggins had been staring into the abyss. His much-hyped attempt to conquer the 2010 Tour de France had ended in public humiliation. Poor results & indifferent form left him facing the sack from Team Sky. & then he was hit with the tragic news of the death of his granddad, George, the man who had raised him as a young boy. At rock bottom, Wiggins had to reach deep inside himself & find the strength to fight his way back. Outspoken, honest, intelligent & fearless, Wiggins has been hailed as the people`s champion. In My Time he tells the story of the remarkable journey that led him from his lowest ebb to win the world`s toughest race. In his own words he reveals the personal anguish that has driven him on & what it`s like behind the scenes at Team Sky: the brutal training regimes, the sacrifices & his views on his teammates & 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 & above all what it takes to be the greatest. ...

Rising from an inner city background, abandoned by his pro cyclist father as a toddler, Bradley Wiggins became a prodigious talent. World Junior Champion, World Champion & Olympic Champion were all titles that came his way at a startlingly young age, but what he really wanted was success on the road. ` Wiggo`s` reinvention on the path to becoming Britain`s first Tour de France winner in over a hundred years of racing is one of sport`s most uplifting & inspiring stories. In this captivating & insightful narrative, Wiggins` old friend & colleague John Deering sets this remarkable story against the backdrop of Wiggins` crushing Tour victory, his races along the thousands of kilometres of French tarmac, telling the tale of his brutal procession from Liege to Paris in counterpoint to his fascinating life. From a Kilburn council estate to the Champs Elysees via the Olympics, Paul Weller & the world`s most glorious sideburns, the legend of Bradley Wiggins is unravelled like never before. ...
