Great Britain finished at the top of the medal table at the weekend's Paracycling Track World Championships in Italy after winning a total of 18 medals - nine of them gold.
Darren Kenny won three golds, in the men's C3 individual pursuit, men's C3 kilometre time trial and as part of the mixed team spring alongside Jody Cundy and Tel Byrne.
Cundy himself won two golds: the aforementioned mixed team sprint and in the C4 kilometre time trial. Cundy also claimed silver in the men's C4 individual pursuit.
Britain's other gold medals came courtesy of Neil Fashie and pilot Craig Maclean (men's tandem kilometre time trial and men's B sprint), Jon-Allan Butterworth (men's C5 kilometre time trial) and Sarah Storey (women's C5 individual pursuit and women's C5 500m time trial).
The result shows that the Great Britain squad is heading towards the 2012 Paralympic Games in London in great form.
"Performances from this weekend are a massive boost for the team, gaining us vital qualification points towards places in London," said GB lead coach Chris Furber.
"The standard of the competition has really moved on since Beijing and being in a medal mix now means we are well placed for medal prospects in 2012."
