Paralympic Cycling - Road

Road Cycling at the Games
Road Cycling was introduced as a Paralympic sport at the Seoul 1988 Games. At Barcelona 1992, athletes from different disability groups competed against each other for the first time. Today, the Paralympic Road Cycling competition features events for both individuals and teams. Competitors in different disability classes use bicycles, tricycles, tandems and handcycles, and are grouped together according to their functional ability.
Paralympic cyclists compete under exactly the same rules and conditions as their counterparts at the Olympic Games.

Venue: London
Dates: Wednesday 5 September – Saturday 8 September
Gold medals up for grabs: 30
