Ciara Horne eager for World Championship, Olympic Games involvement

Team GB's Ciara Horne speaks of her eagerness to feature at the World Championships and Olympic Games.

Ciara Horne has expressed her desire to be included in the Team GB squad for next year's World Cycling Championships, as well as the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

The 25-year-old, who was a part of the squad that won the European team pursuit title last month, has been selected for the upcoming Track Cycling World Cup.

Speaking ahead of that event in Mexico, Horne is eager to prove her worth, particularly with future major competitions in mind.

"The main goal for me is to try and get a spot at the World Championships for the women's team pursuit and the biggest goal for me is Rio," she told Team GB's official website.

"More than anything I want to be on that start line in the team pursuit. That's a dream goal and I'm going to do everything I can to achieve that."

Horne is a former triathlete, but injuries forced her to focus solely on cycling.
