Mark Christian is in Mexico for the opening round of the UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Guadalajara over the weekend.

On the back of his seventh-place finish in the UEC European Track Championships in Guadeloupe last month, the 23-year-old Manxman was selected as part of a 17-strong team that will ride for Great Britain at the World Cup.

The Commonwealth Games rider will join up with Steve Burke, Ed Clancy, Jon Dibben and Andy Tennant to compete in the men’s endurance event - the team pursuit and omnium disciplines - at the Velodromo Panamericano in Tlaquepaque, near Guadalajara.

After this weekend, the World Cup series continues in London in December before the final round in Cali, Colombia in January.
