Britain win gold and silver at IPC World Championships
Great Britain's David Stone won two gold medals on the road and ensured his team finished on a high at the International Paralympic Committee World Cycling Championships in Switzerland.
David Stone was victorious in the time trial and road race events in the CP2 category for trikes and there were also silver medals for Darren Kenny and Sarah Bailey, as well as another bronze for Mark Bristow to add to their total.
David Stone, the European champion in both of his events, was 19 seconds ahead of South African Riaan Nel in the time trial and then put on an incredible performance to win the road race.
Darren Kenny found Spaniard Javier Ochoa too good in the CP3 category races and Ochoa took revenge for Kenny's triumphs on the track.
Sarah Bailey was beaten by China's Ju Fang Zhou in the road race and came second to New Zealand's Claire McLean in the time trial.
