The BBC are quoting from an interview in The Times....he comes across as being very magnanimous in that article. He himself says he may not get picked for le Tour next year.
Correct. Wiggins knows he's not the lead rider at SKY anymore. Froome is a better climber and younger than him. He'd rather try for olympic gold again than be a journeyman rider with SKY so rides one more season and concentrates on the Olympics for one last chance at a medal. If he makes the track squad that is.
Now Cav wants a shot at Rio 2016 too!! http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/cavendish-returnin...
I guess Wiggo would be strong enough to go for the Omnium and that would suit him, I suppose he could drop into the Team Pursuit easily enough too but Cav?!?.... and not forgetting there is a strong group of under 23s emerging from BC's talent programme... So who drops out and who comes in?!??!

You have to say, he could do either (note not both!) Him vs Wiggins vs Martin for the TT would be grandstand stuff though.
Speaking of BW, Sky have name their team to do Tour of Britain.
Bradley Wiggins
Ian Stannard
Josh Edmondson
Matthew Hayman
Bernie Eisel
David Lopez
Reasonably strong line up.
