Jody Cundy is targeting a landmark 20-year unbeaten run in the kilo at the Para-cycling Track World Championships, despite acknowledging that he is no longer a young rider.
Cundy, 48, has remained unbeaten in the event for almost two decades. Victory at the championships would extend that record to 20 years and add another milestone to his para-cycling career.
The British rider described himself as “no spring chicken” as he approaches the competition, but he remains in contention for another title in the kilo, a track cycling event raced over one kilometre.
His bid to maintain the record will be one of the key stories surrounding the championships. The latest information does not specify when or where the event will take place, or whether Cundy has confirmed his participation beyond his pursuit of the unbeaten run.
