Great Britain's Katie Archibald is among the big-name athletes in action at the Track Champions League finale this weekend in London. Archibald leads the women’s endurance competition after last weekend’s third round in Paris, at the Vélodrome National de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, that will host the 2024 Paris Olympics.
"I was really excited for Paris and the rational version of myself thought it was such a good opportunity," Archibald told Cyclingnews ahead of the finale. "I said so in countless interviews about how we can be really deliberate with our practice here and what an advantage is to have exposure to the Olympic track."
"You'll often hear us reference everything back to the Olympic Games because it's both the most important thing to us, but it also ends up being the most important thing to track cycling fans," Archibald justifies.
"It's been a real honour to have the introduction of TCL overlap with my career, and I'm sure other people feel the same way as that springboard into the more regular mainstream for track cycling," she explains the importance of introduction of Track Champions League for all the track pros.
