Cyclist Dave Brailsford stays on as British Cycling boss
Cyclist Dave Brailsford has extended his contract beyond the 2012 Olympics and has confirmed a long-term deal to stay on as British Cycling's performance director.
Dave Brailsford, 43, said: "Not many people can say they absolutely love their jobs but I am one of the lucky few who can."
His new appointment comes after a year in which the athletes Dave Brailsford has been in charge of have won six senior gold medals at world cycling championships, and he was also successful in establishing a professional road-racing team, which is owned and managed by the national federation.
Dave Brailsford went on to add: "I am very pleased to commit my future to British cycling.
"I am very fortunate to have an outstanding team of riders and staff around me. They share my unquenchable desire to achieve excellence and are people I really enjoy working with.
"The opportunity to lead the team in a home Olympics is a privilege and one which I relish."
