British Cycling has decided not to send a women’s endurance squad to the Nations Cup in March in Turkey, so Archibald’s other big targets for 2025 will be October’s World Championships in Santiago, Chile.

While the 2028 Olympics is her major ambition, a home Commonwealth Games in 2026 is also high on her agenda.

“It is a really exciting thing in my season-planning for the next two years,” she said.

“It was in 2012 that the Sir Chris Hoy velodrome opened in Glasgow for the 2014 Games, and you can pinpoint easily a lot of the talent that has come out of that facility.

“It’s quite a nice rounding point for my career, from when I was trying to break into that 2014 team, to still feel quite connected to that naive rider that was there. So that’s a big deal for me.”
