Bradley Wiggins wrote his name large in Olympics and cycling history at Hampton Court today with a magnificent gold medal in the men’s time trial, a victory which means he was won more Olympic medals than any other Briton. He has now won seven medals in total, including four gold. Compatriot Chris Froome won bronze. There was further joy for Great Britain when Chris Froome, who rode so strongly in support of Wiggins at the recent Tour de France, battled his way around the course to take a splendid bronze medal, a hugely deserved personal accolade for an a man who has ridden loyally for others this season. Froome averages nearly 51kmh to finish in 51 mins 47.87 secs Wiggins achievement also means he has equalled the achievement of his boyhood hero Miguel Indurain in winning the Tour de France and the Men’s Olympic Time-Trial
