Sir Bradley Wiggins exits bus at start of Tour de Yorkshire 2015 (picture Simon Wilkinson, SWPix)Livestream: Sir Bradley Wiggins goes for the UCI Hour record - watch it here
This evening, Sir Bradley Wiggins is aiming to beat Alex Dowsett's UCI Hour record at the Lee Valley VeloPark in London.
He sets off at 6.30pm to try and beat the 52.937km set by Dowsett last month in Manchester.
Full details of how to watch it can be found here - alternatively, here's the Sky Sports livestream from YouTube.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

He even got rid of the sideburns...the ultimate sacrifice!
you are known by your friends, Johann Bruyneel is on the guest list ...
Damn Pick TV, it started during an ad break!
To be fair, he started 3 minutes earlier than scheduled.
The beard has gone!
