Once the official registration procedures have been completed, the official page of the XXXII Tokyo Olympic Games shows America with an enviable presence in cycling competitions: 16 countries and 96 riders, figures that demonstrate the vitality and power of this sport in our continent.
The highest figure appears in road cycling with 33 names, among them the well-known Richard Carapaz from Ecuador, Rigoberto Urán and Nairo Quintana from Colombia, as well as the Cuban Arlenis Sierra, the American Coryn Rivera and the talented young Trinidadian runner Tenel Campbell .
In the case of track cycling, 27 tickets assure us that we will be fighting for medals on the Japanese velodrome track, especially from the powerful formations of Canada and the United States, without ruling out any other surprises from Colombia, Mexico and Trinidad and Tobago.
Of course, the BMX will have in the Colombian Mariana Pajón, double Olympic monarch, the greatest centers of attention. The leap made in this discipline is remarkable if we compare it with the last edition in Rio de Janeiro 2016, since now 15 runners from six nations have achieved their quota. A third title for Mariana is expected by all, which record difficult to erase in the history of these four-year appointments.
Finally in the Mountain Bike or mountain biking we will have 14 figures from America trying to fight for a podium; While in the Olympic debut of the BMX Freestyle Park we also have not only seven brave risk-takers, but we can also go out with champions, given the quality of our representatives, world medalists in 2020 and 2021.
Here we leave you with the complete list of classifieds in America for the cycling of this appointment, which will have the particularity that it will be the only sport with action every day, since it will begin on July 24 with the route for men and will conclude on 8 August with the last tests on the track.
