Cycling at the Olympic Games: Paris 2024 results and the Los Angeles 2028 programme.

The olympics.com page listing every Paris 2024 cycling result timed out when our research tried to read it, so the podiums below come from the UCI's reports of each event. Where a result reached us only through a search summary, or where the report we read did not name a medallist, we say so.

Paris 2024: road

The men's time trial, on the first day of Olympic cycling medal events, is from a search summary of the UCI's report; the women's time trial is from a search summary of the olympics.com results page. The UCI calls Evenepoel's time trial and road race double, a week apart, unprecedented in men's Olympic road cycling. Faulkner won the women's road race alone, the day after the men's race, and the UCI says she was the first American winner since Connie Carpenter at Los Angeles 1984, the first Olympic women's road race.

Paris 2024: track

Track events were held at the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines Velodrome.

All from UCI reports, with these limits. The men's team sprint silver and bronze reached us through search summaries of UCI reports. The men's Madison comes from search summaries of olympics.com and the UCI and was not confirmed on a page we read. The report we read on the men's sprint names Lavreysen as champion and Carlin as bronze medallist after beating Jeffrey Hoogland, and says Richardson reached the final, but does not state the silver outright.

Records set, per the UCI. The Dutch men set an Olympic record of 41.279 in team sprint qualifying. The women's team sprint world record was broken five times in the competition, ending at Great Britain's 45.186 in the final. Australia's men broke the team pursuit world record in the first round. The US women's 4' 04.306" in the team pursuit final was just outside Germany's 2021 world record. Lavreysen set a 200 m flying-start world record of 9.088 in sprint qualifying, and Friedrich one of 10.029 for women. The UCI says Lavreysen won three golds in Paris, for five Olympic titles counting Tokyo 2020; Valente kept the omnium title she already held; and Portugal's Madison was the country's first Olympic cycling title.

Paris 2024: mountain bike and BMX

The women's cross-country times are from a search summary of olympics.com, which printed the gaps as "+2.57" and "+3.02"; we read them as minutes and seconds. Pidcock kept the title he won at Tokyo 2020 despite a puncture (UCI). The French men's BMX racing clean sweep came at Daudet's fourth Games (UCI). The two BMX freestyle results come from search summaries of UCI reports.

Los Angeles 2028: the programme

The Games run from 14 to 30 July 2028. The UCI says cycling will award 22 titles in five disciplines (road, track, mountain bike, BMX racing and BMX freestyle) with 514 athlete places, 257 per gender, the same total as Paris 2024. Its quota table:

The UCI says the qualification systems were published after IOC approval.
