Australia’s cyclists complete mammoth medal haul at end of Commonwealth Games

Australia concluded the Commonwealth Games with a total of 171 medals, including 70 gold, following a dominant performance by the nation's track cycling squad. The cycling team contributed significantly to the overall tally, securing 28 total medals, of which 10 were gold.

Athletes in the cycling squad achieved this success despite overcoming substantial challenges, such as physical pain, near-retirement, and poorly timed illnesses, ultimately resulting in a historic campaign that featured a history-equalling feat by competitor Georgia Baker.
