Lead para-cycling coach Jon Norfolk said: “We have had a strong start to our Paralympic qualifying campaign and have seen some good results at international level. As well as our existing Paralympic champions who have made selection, it’s great to welcome some new riders such as Megan Giglia, Louis Rolfe and Jaco van Gass to the team. They all showed some promising performances at the recent Newport Para-cycling International and it’s a real testament to the hard work of the coaches on the Para-cycling Development Programme that these riders are now able to represent Great Britain at world level.”
