Katie Archibald set for racing return at World Championships after freak leg fracture

Katie Archibald of Great Britain wins Gold in the Women’s Omnium at the 2023 European Track Championships.

Two-time Olympic champion Katie Archibald will return to racing next week at the UCI Track World Championships, her first competition since breaking her leg in June.
