Ed Clancy and Owain Doull will take part in the opening round of the 2016 Revolution Track Series fresh from their gold-medal winning success in Rio as part of the British team pursuit squad.

Doull (Team Wiggins) and Clancy (JLT Condor) will ride in round one of the series in Manchester on September 17 against each other. Both riders have been regulars in the event in past seasons.

Doull added: “I’ve taken part in the Future Stars at Revolution for three seasons since I was 14. In the last season, I won it, which was nice. I’ve ridden the Revolution a lot; there aren’t many platforms you can race at in front of a packed crowd of 5,000 people and I think, actually, by the time you get to something like the Olympics, it gives you an advantage because it’s a natural environment for you.”

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.
