Sir Bradley Wiggins: It's difficult really. There's an overwhelming sense of relief with the amount of pressure we were under and everything that was at stake. But really I'm just incredibly proud of the guys, I always had great belief in what we were doing and in my teammates. Steven Burke and Ed Clancy are two of the greatest pursuit riders of all time and Owain has great speed but is totally unfazed by these huge occasions. We knew it would take a World Record to win it, so to put the work in, all that graft and execute like that makes me incredibly proud of everyone involved and so grateful for all the support from our families.
