LONDON (Reuters) - Bradley Wiggins will defend his Tour of Britain title in September instead of riding in the Tour of Spain, Team Sky manager Dave Brailsford said on Sunday.

Briton Wiggins, who won the 2012 Tour de France, said in February he would "love to ride the Vuelta and use it as preparation for the World Championships (in Spain)".
