Qualification

The qualification period lasts from 1 January to 31 December 2018 and is based on world rankings. In order for cyclists to maintain their slots, they must compete in the 2019 or 2020 UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships or UCI Para-cycling Road World Championships or any UCI Para-Cycling Road World Cup in 2019.[3][4]

The highest ranked athlete per NPC will obtain one qualification spot. The qualification slot is allocated to the NPC not to the individual athlete: in the case of bipartite commission invitations, the slot is allocated to the athlete not to the NPC.
