American Kristin Armstrong (USA) successfully defended her Olympic time trial title on Wednesday, winning the women's event in Hampton Court.
Armstrong beat German Judith Arndt by 15 seconds on the 29km course, with road race bronze medallist Olga Zabelinskaya (Russia) grabbing another medal in third.
Great Britain's Emma Pooley finished in sixth place, over a minute down on Armstrong. She was visibly upset at the finish having not won a medal after clinching silver in 2008.
Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
