British rider Bradley Wiggins (FDJeux.com) has taken the lead after the first stage of the Tour de l'Avenir, a 10.7 kilometre time trial held in Bonneval. The 23 year old clocked 13'09, an average speed of 48.82 km/h, to beat his teammate Benoît Vaugrenard and Rabobank's Joost Posthuma by 14 seconds.

Wiggins is no stranger to riding against the clock, having won the bronze medal in the Individual Pursuit at the Sydney Olympics, and more recently the gold medal in the same event at the World Championships in Stuttgart. "After the gold medal at the World Championships I didn't train a lot," said Wiggins. "I already had the form and the time trial suited me to perfection."
