Callum Thornley (born 5 August 2003) is a Scottish cyclist. He rides for Trinity Racing.[1]
Early life[edit]
He is from Peebles, in the Scottish Borders, and started mountain-biking from the age of eight years-old and competed at Glentress as a youngster at races organised by Peebles Cycling Club. He raced on the road for the first time as a 16 year-old, but has been interested in road cycling since a family holiday to France as a youngster enabled him to watch the Tour de France live in the mountains.[2]
Career[edit]
He was a stage winner and second overall at the Youth Tour of Errigal in Ireland in 2019.[3] That year, he also competed in the Scottish National Madison Championships, and won the silver medal in the boys' Madison alongside Alexander Gibb.[4]
He finished second in the under-23s’ time-trial at the British National Time Trial Championships in Dumfries in June 2022.[5][6] That year, he was riding for Wheelbase CabTech Castelli, before signing for Trinity Racing for 2023.[7][8]
In 2023, he was selected for the British team to compete in the U23 time trial at the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships in Glasgow.[9] He finished in fourteenth place.[10]
In April 2024, he finished tenth at the Paris–Roubaix Espoirs.[11] He was selected to ride the Tour of Britain in September 2024.[12]
