Playlist: The Jam “In The City”

We would like to start Glue’s music playlist with a post-victory tune chosen by Bradley Wiggins, the Olympics 2012 gold medallist and the 2012 Tour de France champion.

Shortly after victory at the Olympics tis summer, he turned up at BT London Live at Hyde Park as a surprise guest. Wiggins told the cheering crowd: “I’ll never have to buy a pint again”.
