Team GB cyclist Neah Evans claimed Olympic team pursuit silver in Tokyo but she only has eyes for gold in Paris this summer.
Neah Evans leaves no room for doubt when asked what she hopes to achieve at the Olympic Games in Paris this summer.Three years ago, in the Covid-afflicted Toyko Games, the Scot claimed silver in the team pursuit. Far from sating her, it has left the 33-year-old wanting more.
"When you say that, a lot of people go, 'but you still got an Olympic silver'. But I remember doing all this media and thinking, 'it could have been better'. It sounds quite arrogant but it's quite a juxtaposition of emotions."Winning is what Britain's cyclists do - Evans included. Multiple world and European Championship golds are among her collection.
"In an Olympics, you don't race with the rainbows on but everybody knows who you are, everybody is waiting for you to make that move and they are going to come with you.'Absolutely zero plans to retire'
