Sir Bradley Wiggins received a rapturous welcome from the crowd on the opening night of the Six Day London track cycling event.
The Lee Valley VeloPark erupted when the 36-year-old was introduced alongside team-mate Mark Cavendish.
This week is the last time Wiggins will race in Britain, but his farewell has been overshadowed by the revelation that he took the banned drug triamcinolone under therapeutic use exemptions ahead of the 2011 and 2012 Tours de France and 2013 Giro d'Italia.
There is also an ongoing UK Anti-Doping investigation into a medical package received by Team Sky in the weeks leading up to the 2011 Tour.
However, there was no sign of damage to Wiggins' reputation on Tuesday night.
Speaking on stage, he said: "I'm just pleased to get back on the bike. I just love riding on the track."
Wiggins and Cavendish finished third in the opening Madison race of the Six Day London, which is contested by teams of two over multiple disciplines and concludes on Sunday.
