Site: Sir Bradley Wiggins - St Augustine’s Sport Centre (1 memorial)

NW6, Oxford Road, St Augustine’s Sport Centre

As a child Wiggins attended St Augustine's School. The Brent and Kilburn Times announced the unveiling of this "Sculpture of Sir Bradley Wiggins". Obviously it's not "of" Wiggins but it is decorated with cogwheels from bikes which he possible feels are almost part of his body.
