We can confirm that two riders and four spectators received medical treatment following an incident during tonight’s UCI Track Champions League event at Lee Valley VeloPark, in London. The incident took place during the Women’s Keirin race. The event medics responded immediately, with one rider transferred to the hospital.
WBD Sports, British Cycling, Lee Valley VeloPark, and the Union Cycliste Internationale unanimously decided to suspend all further racing for the evening and want to extend their best wishes for a speedy recovery to both riders and all affected spectators. We also wish to thank the medical staff for their prompt response and ongoing support.
We are working closely with all parties to review the incident before taking appropriate action. No further comments will be made at this time.
