Cycling at the 2024 Summer Paralympics – Men's road time trial

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The men's road time trial cycling events at the 2024 Summer Paralympics will take place on 4 September at Clichy-sois-Bois, Paris. Twelve events will take place over twelve classifications. The T1-2 time trial, which takes in two classifications, is a 'factored' event, with times adjusted by classification to allow fair competition. All events (finals) are to be held on the same day (4 September).[1]

Classification

[edit]

Cyclists are given a classification depending on the type and extent of their disability. The classification system allows cyclists to compete against others with a similar level of function. The class number indicates the severity of impairment with "1" being most impaired.

Cycling classes are:[2]

  • B: Blind and visually impaired cyclists use a Tandem bicycle with a sighted pilot on the front
  • H 1–5: Cyclists with an impairment that affects their legs use a handcycle
  • T 1–2: Cyclists with an impairment that affects their balance use a tricycle
  • C 1–5: Cyclists with an impairment that affects their legs, arms, and/or trunk but are capable of using a standard bicycle
