Bethany Kate Shriever[1] Шаблон:Postnominals (born 19 April 1999) is an elite British cyclist, competing as a BMX racer. A World Junior champion in 2017, and winner of the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup final event in Zolder in 2018,[2] in 2021 Shriever won both the Olympic and World titles, equalling the feat of Colombian legend Mariana Pajón, who won Olympic silver. In 2022 Shriever completed the full set of gold medals by winning the 2022 UEC BMX Racing European Championships; in doing so, she became the first BMX racing cyclist in history to hold all three titles simultaneously.
Life
Shriever was born in 1999 and she began BMX when she was aged eight years old.[3] Thereafter she started training at her local club in Braintree and went on to start competing at weekends.[4] Shriever won the silver medal at the 2016 BMX European Cycling Championships[5] In 2017 she became the Junior World Champion. In 2018 she finished 17th in her maiden appearance as a senior at the World Championships in Baku[6] as well as winning the UCI BMX World Cup final in Belgium edging Judy Baauw and Laura Smulders into second and third.[7] In March 2020 Shriever dominated the National BMX Series in Manchester without dropping a lap.[8]
Shriever was chosen to be part of Great Britain’s 26 strong cycling squad at the postponed 2020 Tokyo Olympics where she won the Women's BMX racing gold medal. Whilst being interviewed on TV after her win she couldn't refrain from swearing in her shock. [9][10]
Personal life
Shriever worked part-time as a teaching assistant in a nursery at the Stephen Perse Foundation[11] to cover some of her costs of training and travelling because UK Sport stipulated in its funding review after the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games that only male riders would be supported heading towards Tokyo 2020.Шаблон:Cn
Shriever was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2022 New Year Honours for services to BMX racing.[12][13]
