On the penultimate day of competition at the Rio de Janeiro Velodrome, the Belgian cyclist celebrated his first-ever gold medal, triumphing in the Sprint (C5) event.<\/p><p>\u201cIt\u2019s really emotional, especially after what happened on Thursday, when I was the fastest in the Time Trial qualifying round but then had a problem in the final. I probably would have taken silver in that race, but I lost (and finished fifth). So I had to keep my motivation high for today, and I\u2019m grateful to my coach, who gave me confidence and told me I was the fastest rider,\u201d said the 34-year-old athlete, who has an impairment in his left hand.<\/p><p>Until this edition, Niels\u2019 r\u00e9sum\u00e9 included two bronze medals from Paracycling World Championships, both in the Time Trial, in 2023 and 2024. This time, in an event that isn\u2019t even his specialty, he fulfilled a lifelong dream.<\/p><p>\u201cThis medal is even more special because it happened here in Rio, where everything started in 2018, when I raced my first World Championship. This city represents the beginning of everything and the place where I\u2019ve achieved my best results. Now the dream has come true,\u201d he added.<\/p><p>Another athlete who continues to build a strong bond with Rio de Janeiro is Switzerland\u2019s Flurina Rigling, 29, who won the Sprint title on Saturday in the C2 class, reaching her third podium in 2025 \u2014 after taking gold in the Scratch race and silver in the Time Trial earlier in the week.<\/p><p>\u201cI worked really well this year. It\u2019s been quite a long season, but I\u2019m happy with the medals and proud to see that I\u2019m still in great physical shape, able to win two world titles,\u201d said Rigling, who was born with only one finger on each of her hands and feet.<\/p><p>Since 2021, Flurina has proven to be one of the most consistent athletes in the sport. Her Sprint victory marked the 13th medal of her career in Paracycling Track World Championships: now totaling five golds, five silvers, and three bronzes. The Swiss rider also has ten podium finishes in Paracycling Road World Championships and two Paralympic medals.<\/p><p>\u201cAfter Covid-19, I decided to change both my equipment and strategy. I work really hard, have great support, and do everything possible to improve year after year. I believe in a process of evolution \u2014 of comparing myself to myself \u2014 and that gives me a lot of energy,\u201d she explained.<\/p><p>Another memorable moment from the third day of competition came from Australia\u2019s Tahila Clayton-Goodie, who shattered the world record in the C1 Time Trial, lowering the mark by more than eight seconds (1:25.366) to secure her third gold medal in Rio.<\/p><p>The 2025 UCI Paracycling Track World Championships in Rio de Janeiro continue through Sunday, October 19, with morning and afternoon sessions starting at 9 a.m. at the Rio Velodrome (Avenida Embaixador Abelardo Bueno, 3401 \u2013 Barra da Tijuca).
