Lizzie Deignan will become the first female British cyclist to compete at four Olympic Games after being selected by Team GB for Paris 2024.

Deignan, who won road race silver at London 2012 and competed in Rio and Tokyo, has been named in a four-strong women's road squad alongside national road race champion Pfeiffer Georgi, time-trial champion Anna Henderson and Anna Morris.

Defending BMX champions Beth Shriever and Charlotte Worthington have also been picked.

Elinor Barker, who won Olympic gold in 2016 and silver in 2020 in the team pursuit on the track, will race at her third Games.

Where has that 3 weeks sped to  :o.  I'll have a square bum by the end  ;D

Not as much field art this year  :-\ and the camera crews have avoided filming the messages being held up by spectators along the route, mayB 4 political reasons.  I've seen one 'free Palestine' in recent days.

It's hot here and looks so in France  :-\.  11.15 start today  :ola:

WOW - the scenery has been lovely.  However there haven't been many shots of supporters' messages  :-\ and very little field art  >:(

Tour of Wales !!!! Cycling 2024
« Reply #21 on: August 23, 2024, 08:43:01 AM »

A cycling race has been shortened and rerouted due to Wales' 20mph default speed limit, organisers have said.

Three of the five stages of the Junior Tour of Wales, which starts on Friday, have been changed as support vehicles would not be able to keep up with the riders without speeding.

The race's finish has also been moved from Nantgaredig, Carmarthenshire, the home of three-time Olympic cycling medallist Emma Finucane.

The Welsh government said it had worked with organisers to make sure the race could go ahead safely.


Apparently cyclists over take vehicles keeping to the 20mph limit!
