(Reuters) - The children of British cyclist Bradley Wiggins were bullied and had to move schools following Lance Armstrong's admission last year that he had taken drugs while winning the Tour de France seven times.

The four-times Olympic gold medal winner and 2012 Tour champion said his son and daughter were asked if their father had taken drugs like the American, who has since been stripped of his titles.
