Sir Bradley Wiggins to take part in Fabian Cancellara's farewell race
Friday 4 November 2016 15:26, UK
Sir Bradley Wiggins will take part in an exhibition race in Belgium next weekend to mark the retirement of Swiss legend Fabian Cancellara.
'Ciao Fabian' will be held in the Kuipke velodrome in Ghent on Saturday, November 12, three days before Wiggins draws his own career to a close at the Six Days of Ghent.
Wiggins, Frank Schleck, Sep Vanmarcke and Filippo Pozzato will be among the riders who race Cancellara in a 2km pursuit.
Cancellara, 35, retired after winning the Olympic time trial title in Rio in August.
Wiggins suggested last Sunday that he may yet prolong his career in order to compete in the 2017 Six Day London next autumn.
