Wiggins, three times an Olympic gold medal winner, is looking to focus on the annual challenge of the Tour de France rather than concentrate on further Olympic glory.

Wiggins said: "The Olympic Games are fantastic for the two weeks they are on every four years but the Tour de France is where it's at."

The 29-year-old Garmin Slipstream team rider, who entered the 15th stage of the current Tour de France in sixth overall, is not intent on adding to his gold medals from the Athens and Beijing Olympics.

Asked whether he would consider missing the London Olympics, Wiggins told the Sunday Times: "I don't know. It all depends on this last week. If I can finish top five, or top 10, or even if I have one horrendous day and slip down to 15th, what I've experienced over the past two weeks has made me realise what I want to do for the next four years."

"Riding well at the Tour de France is a dream come true," added Wiggins, who won the Olympics 4km individual pursuit at Athens and defending that tile in Beijing as well as adding the team pursuit title.
