SIR Bradley Wiggins has confirmed his intention to ride in the inaugural Tour de Yorkshire in May.
The 2012 Tour de France winner will leave Team Sky at the end of April to head up his own 'Team Wiggins' developmental squad, and revealed the three-day race in Yorkshire will be among his first assignments for the new team.
The Tour de Yorkshire will take place from May 1-3 as a legacy event from last year's hugely successful Grand Depart of the Tour de France, which brought millions of fans to the region.
