Venues

Three of the four cycling venues were located within the West Midlands region:

Myton Fields was the start/finish location for a road race course that circulated through Warwick and Leamington Spa.^[4]^[5]
West Park in Wolverhampton was the start/finish location for a road time trial course that stretched to Dudley.^[6]^[7]
Cannock Chase Forest was the venue for mountain biking.^[8]^[9]

In addition, it was decided that the Lee Valley VeloPark in London, more than 100 miles away from Birmingham, would host the track cycling.^[10]^[11] This caused backlash amongst residents in the West Midlands, and even resulted in a petition that was signed by 6,000 locals that urged for a new velodrome to be built in the West Midlands instead of using one in London.^[12] Nonetheless, a new velodrome in the West Midlands was ruled out on grounds of cost.^[13]

Qualification (parasport)

A total of 12 para-track cyclists (6 per gender) nominally qualified to compete at the Games.^[14] They qualify as follows:

Athletes in the UCI Individual Tandem B – Track Para Rankings (for performances between 1 January 2021 and 18 April 2022).
Recipient of a CGF / UCI Bipartite Invitation.
