Dame Sarah Storey in the C5 Time Trial at Rio (copyright Alex Whitehead - SWpix.com for Britishcycling.org_.uk).jpgDame Sarah Storey aims to make history at Tokyo 2020
Dame Sarah Storey hopes that aiming for personal best times at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games can help make her Great Britain’s most successful ever Paralympic athlete.
The 40-year-old currently has 14 Paralympic gold medals – five in swimming and nine in cycling – putting her two behind swimmer Mike Kenny, who won 16 between 1976 and 1988.
She outlined her plans to ride four events in Tokyo – three of them ones in which she is defending Olympic champion – in a wide ranging interview published today on road.cc.
Speaking to Caroline Dodgson, she also talks about juggling motherhood with her hugely successful cycling career, her decision to skip this year’s UCI Para-cycling World Championships in Rio, the Storey Racing team she has set up with her husband Barney and how mums can be encouraged to get cycling with their kids.
You can find the full interview here.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
