The Australian Cycling Team has finished third on the medal tally at the 2020 UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships held in Milton, Canada, January 30 to February 2. 

The Australian Team's eight athletes won a total of eight gold, one silver and one bronze, with powerhouse China the only nation to win more gold with nine. Only China (21), Great Britain (14) and the USA (12) won more total medals.

Triple rainbows for Emily Petricola (VIC), dual crowns for Amanda Reid (NSW), and gold to Paige Greco (SA), David Nicholas (QLD) and Alistair Donohoe (VIC) highlighted the Championships.

"I am very pleased from the solid performances from the targeted group of athletes we selected," said Warren McDonald, Para-cycling Technical Director, Cycling Australia. 

"To finish so high on the medal table, while competing against teams over twice our size, is a testament to the hard work and commitment from all of our athletes and staff. 

"While we recognise there is still work to be done, I am confident the athletes and the high-performance team behind them are on a trajectory for a successful campaign at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games."

Medals (8 gold, 1 silver, 1 bronze)
​
  • Emily Petricola (VIC) C4 - Gold individual pursuit, scratch race, omnium
  • Amanda Reid (NSW) C2 - Gold time trial, omnium

PARA | Six rainbows highlight weekend in Milton

3/2/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
Triple rainbows to Emily Petricola, dual rainbows to Amanda Reid and rainbow redemption for Alistair Donohoe highlighted the weekend at the 2020 UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships in Milton, Canada. 

It was a triple Canadian treat for Victoria's Emily Petricola who stunned the Track World Championships by winning three rainbow jerseys in one day. Full recap. 

Amanda Reid defended her 500m time trial title in sensational style by breaking her own world record en route to rainbows. Reid stopped the clock in 39.035secs, half a second ahead of her own world mark (39.505) set at the 2019 World Championships in The Netherlands.

After the race, Reid dedicated her victory to her grandfather who passed away on the morning the team were scheduled to depart Australia. 

“This race was one of the hardest races I’ve had to do, this race was for him,” said Reid, who soared to the world record in his honour.  “My first lap was fast, and I just had to hold on all the way to the end. 

“The world record was just the icing on top of the cake after the last few weeks. 

“I would like to thank my coach Tom (Skulander) and Zsolt, as well as many other people who work hard behind the scene to make this possible for me.” 

Reid then took victory in the scratch race to join Petricola as a multiple rainbow jersey winner at the 2020 Championships. 

Unfortunately, Alistair Donohoe (VIC) was unable to defend his C5 individual pursuit crown after crashing in his qualifying heat after clipping a foam pad. Although only suffering abrasions after sliding on the boards, Donohoe was unable to finish his heat and did not progress to the finals. 

Donohoe found redemption however on the final day of competition when he stormed to the scratch race gold. 

“After the disappointment of the individual pursuit, today I was out for redemption and I think that’s what got me across the line first, I just wanted it that bit more than the rest,” said Donohoe. “It was a brutal race from the start and I had to take two laps on the field just to stay on winning terms, but I really love that aggressive style of racing so it played Into my hands perfectly. 
“Every athlete knows the frustrations of something going wrong In their event or not being able to compete so to end the worlds trip on this note takes the pain away from my wounds and puts a smile back on my face.”
Gordon Allan (NSW) claimed bronze in the C2 1000m time trial, less than two seconds behind France’s Alexandre Leaute (1:11.373) who set a new world mark on his way to winning gold. Allan’s time of 1min 12.789secs also eclipsed the old world record before Leaute leapfrogged him to victory. 

‪David Nicholas (QLD) finished sixth in the C3 scratch race, while in the C2 final Darren Hicks (SA) was ninth and Allan twelfth. Hicks was also seventh overall in the omnium.

The Australian Team has arrived in Canada ahead of the 2020 UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships to be held from 30 January to 2 February. 

The eight riders and staff arrived in chilly Milton at the weekend after a week-long training camp in sunny Los Angeles where they celebrated Australia Day.

Australia enjoyed superb results at the 2019 UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships held last March, with the team finishing second on the medal standings with nine world titles in a glittering 17-medal haul.

The 2020 World Championships is highlighted by reigning world champions Alistair Donohoe (VIC), Paige Greco (SA), Darren Hicks (SA), David Nicholas (QLD), Emily Petricola (VIC) and Amanda Reid (NSW). 2019 World Championships medallists Meg Lemon (SA) and Gordon Allan (NSW) round out the selections. 

As the 2020 Championships provides the final opportunity to acquire qualification points towards the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games, Cycling Australia Para-cycling Technical Director Warren McDonald has one eye on rainbows this week and another on the August's Games. 

"We had some great performances in Paralympic events in 2019, and this year we are looking to be very close to that performance but remembering that the benchmark is Tokyo 2020," said Warren McDonald, Para-cycling Technical Director, Cycling Australia. 

"This year we have narrowed the focus with the Paralympic Games in August, and as a result we have one of the smallest teams we have taken away with only eight athletes, but we believe all eight will be on the podium in Paralympic events."
​

Reluctant to highlight one cyclist over another in a team that boasts six reigning world champions, McDonald did suggest fans and media keep an eye on Gordon Allan. 

"Gordon won time trial silver in 2019, but since his main competitor has been reclassified, and after Gordon broke the time trial world record at the Brisbane Track World Cup last December, we could have a new addition to the world champion list if he continues to perform and stays healthy."

The Championships get underway at 9.30am local time on Thursday 30 January (1.30am AEDT -16 hours).

Sydney's Gordon Allan celebrated his maiden World Championship medal with silver in the C2 1km time trial final at the 2019 UCI Para-cycling World Championships in the Netherlands on Friday. 

In amazing scenes, Allan covered the four laps in just a tick under fifty kilometres per hour to set a new world record with a superb time of 1min 12.873secs.

However in the very next ride, the final competitor to take to the track in Colombia’s Alejandro Perea just pipped the Australian's new mark by 0.005secs (1min12.838secs). 

â–¡â–¡â–¡â–¡ What do you do when you break a world record, which is broken moments later by the final rider?
You go straight to congratulate the winner, that’s what! □ Congrats @Gordon_98 on TT silver □
What a ride â–¡â–¡ What a star â–¡

Stoked with a 2nd place in the C2 1km TT today. Broke the World Record but unfortunately so did 1st place with only 0.05 seconds separating us in the end.

That facial expression though 'please don't tear Hammy!' â–¡â–¡â–¡ Just reliving my old long jump days...! Johnny B would be proud... technique still on point all these years later. So cool the velodrome also has an indoor running track, pole vault & sprint lanes, I couldn''t not have a jump... albeit in my cycling gear & socks so left the cover on... sand in bib Knicks, I don't think that would be much fun. â–¡

The team will also feature reigning world champion David Nicholas (QLD), plus former world champions Amanda Reid (NSW) and Simone Kennedy (NSW).
 
​Emily Petricola (VIC) returns to the team following her outstanding debut at the 2018 World Championships which saw her bring home dual medals and the individual pursuit world record.

Towards Tokyo 2020: Para Track Team takes first step at Worlds

21/3/2018

2018 UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships  | Rio De Janeiro  | 22-25 March 2018
​
The Australian Cycling Team’s journey towards the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games begins this Thursday in Rio at the 2018 UCI Para-cyclingTrack World Championships.
 
From March 22-25, the Championships offers the first vital opportunity for nations to grab valuable qualification points towards Tokyo 2020, with the 16-rider Australian team to vie against 200 of the world’s best from 30 countries.
 
It will also be a return to the velodrome for many of our 2016 Paralympic heroes, in particular reigning world champions David Nicholas (QLD) and Amanda Reid (NSW).
 
“I think everyone has travelled quite well over to Rio from Australia, still getting over a bit of jetlag as expected, but everything is looking good so far for some good performances,” said Nicholas, who claimed 2016 Paralympic gold in in the individual pursuit and will be aiming for a strong performance in his world title defence.
 
“Being back here in Rio at the Velodrome where I won gold two years ago feels amazing, first hit out on track was great.
 
“Certainly will try to defend my title, but if I do a great performance that I know I can do, I will be happy and the result will be what it will be.”
 
Dual reigning world champion Reid is eager to get the competition underway after completing a week of training on the track.
 
“Felt great to be back here on these boards again after 2016, spending time getting used to the slightly different shape of the track again before ramping up the training as the week progressed,” added Reid, who announced herself in 2017 with rainbow jerseys in both the time trial and individual pursuit.
 
“I'm feeling really more and more excited about the competition as we get closer to it.
 
“I'm confident about my chances of retaining my world crown in the 500 time trial which is my main goal, and I'm also looking for a personal best in the individual pursuit.”
 
The Championships begin what will be a busy two weeks for 2016 world champions and Paralympic bronze medallists Jessica Gallagher (VIC) and Pilot Madison Janssen (VIC), with the pair also set to represent Australia at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
 
“Personally, Maddie and I are really excited to race, we have a busy few weeks ahead with the back up straight into the Commonwealth Games, so managing our training loads and taper has been incredibly important,” said Gallagher.  The pair will contest the Tandem time trial and sprint at both the World Championships and the Games.
 
“We are riding fast and with good race conditions anticipated we have high expectations particularly in the sprint. It's safe to say the entire team are all ready to get out there and race!'”

Similarly in the men's Tandem, Brad Henderson (SA) and Thomas Clarke (SA-Pilot) will fine-tune their Games preparation at the Worlds.
 
“This is a really good chance for Tom and I to have some international race experience in a strong field before the Commonwealth Games,” said Henderson. “We are aiming to execute everything we’ve been doing in training, come out with some personal bests and see how we compare amongst the worlds best.”
 
The team also features reigning world champion Simone Kennedy (NSW), plus 2016 Paralympic Games silver medallists Alistair Donohoe (VIC) and Kyle Bridgwood (QLD).
