No 2020 Games for UK’s Wiggins

– Five-time Olympic champion cyclist Bradley Wiggins has abandoned plans to bid to row for Britain at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.

The 2012 Tour de France winner retired from cycling in December 2016 and flirted with the idea of rowing competitively, taking part in last December’s British Rowing Indoor Championships.

“I need to give myself a break. I haven’t got time to train three times a day, he said. –
