Cycling has been part of the Asian Games since the continental showpiece’s inaugural edition in 1951. However, during the 1954 Asiad cycling was not part of the roaster. Nevertheless, it was the only time when this endurance-based sport was missing. Now, cycling at the Asiad has been divided into four categories which are BMX, Mountain bike, Road and Track cycling. As of now, India has won three medals. This includes one silver and two bronze in cycling. However, all of them came in the inaugural edition of the Asian Games in 1951.
There will be a total of 20 events in cycling at the 19th Asian Games in China. However, four events which were a part of the Jakarta Games in 2018 have been omitted from the Hangzhou Games. These events are men’s and women’s downhill and men’s and women’s individual pursuit. Japan is the most successful country in cycling in terms of overall medals won, followed by China and South Korea. However, Indonesia is the strongest nation in mountain cycling.
