Wiggins may yet target Tour defence

Bradley Wiggins could yet target a successful defence of his Tour de France title, despite previously suggesting his focus for 2013 would lie elsewhere.

The 32-year-old became the Tour’s first British winner in July, with Team Sky colleague Chris Froome second, and at October’s launch of next summer’s 100th Tour Wiggins intimated May’s Giro d’Italia would be his main target.
