Bradley Wiggins has no concerns over his fitness and is targeting a gold medal going into the London Olympics.

Team Sky rider Bradley Wiggins has no doubts that he will be fresh going into the London Olympics.

The 32-year-old made history on Sunday as he became the first Brit to ever win the Tour de France, after teammate Mark Cavendish triumphed in the final stage of the famous race.

Despite a gruelling tour, Wiggins is adamant that he will be fit to compete at his best come the Olympics.

"I've just done a world-class time-trial, averaging a ridiculous amount of power, after three weeks' bike racing and two really tough Pyrenees stages, a 222km stage at 44kph average speed with a leadout in the final," said Wiggins.

"Once you start thinking in those terms, that you're so fit and you've trained for the demands of the three weeks and you've actually got three days off in between the road race and the time-trial, it shouldn't be a problem.

"If anything, I'm going to be fresher. If I'm 100% honest, it's gold or nothing in London now."

Wiggins has already earned three Olympic gold medals in his career.
