David Stone wins 2 Gold medals


david-stone
Congratulations to cyclist David Stone who rode to glory for the second time in two days winning his second Gold medal of the Beijing Games. 

David added the mixed individual road race CP1/CP2 title to the time-trial victory he claimed on day six. David, who has cerebral palsy and rides a tricycle, triumphed in emphatic fashion, crossing the line in 45 minutes 05.33 seconds - three minutes 27.52secs ahead of his nearest challenger.

Stone said: "I am very happy and I want to thank all the people who supported me. It is a very hard course with a lot of curves and hills. Three men were in front of me but at last I overtook all of them."
