BBC News Online report of Queally's Olympic gold win
Queally took the lead in the 1km time trial with just three riders remaining; but one of those was the world record holder Arnaud Tarnant and the other was the local favour- ite Shane Kelly, who had pushed Queally into bronze at last year's Commonwealth Games.
Over the following winter Queally was a regular winner of races in a Friday track league in Manchester and by the spring of 1996 word of his reputation had reached the ear of Marshall Thomas, the national squad coach.
The paradox is that Queally's performances are underpinned by an extraordinary toughness and physical endurance in the most demanding of all cycling disciplines.
