Maddie Leech does not come from a cycling background but watching Laura Kenny, Katie Archibald and company at Rio 2016 inspired her to get on a bike.

And at Birmingham 2022, Leech roared to team pursuit bronze alongside Kenny at her maiden Commonwealth Games.

The Huddersfield Star Wheelers also graduated from the same 'Go-Ride' programme which counts Kenny among its glittering alumni back in her early days on the track.

In early 2022, the master and the apprentice joined forces as Leech and Kenny teamed up in the madison at the UCI Track Nations Cup in Glasgow.

The pair crashed out on that occasion but Leech is no stranger to success on the big stage, having been part of winning teams in the European Junior Championship team pursuit and World Junior Championship road race.

Cycling
Cycling at the Commonwealth Games in the past has taken place across three different disciplines; Track Cycling, Road Cycling and Mountain Bike.
