Victoria "Vicky" Williamson (born 15 September 1993) is an elite British track cyclist who specialises in the sprint disciplines. In 2013, with Rebecca James, she won the bronze medal in the team sprint at the World Track Cycling Championships.

Early life

Williamson was educated at Norwich High School for Girls.[2] At the suggestion of one of her coaches at the City of Norwich Athletic Club, she switched from athletics to cycling in 2008.[1][3] She entered the Girls4Gold programme, a group that searches for talented athletes with a potential for cycling, before being accepted into the Olympic Development Programme (ODP).[4] She then progressed onto the elite Podium Programme two years later, and made her senior debut at the 2013 World Championships in Minsk.

Career

At the 2011 Juniors Track World Championships in Moscow, she won a silver in the 500m time trial, a bronze in the sprint and came fifth in the keirin.[5] She made her senior world debut very shortly after, and won a bronze medal with partner Becky James in the team sprint at the 2013 Track World Championships in Minsk, Belarus.[6] Since then she continues to compete at an international level, picking up numerous medals.

Crash and marriage

In January 2016 Williamson was involved in a traumatic crash with Dutch rider Elis Ligtlee, at the during a omnium sprint race at Six Days of Rotterdam (Zesdaagse Rotterdam). The collision with the fence resulted in Williamson suffering a broken neck and back, dislocating her pelvis and slipping a disc in her neck.[7] Williamson's racing number burned her skin in the crash and according to her if it had become infected she would have had plastic surgery.

Williamson was left with a loss of feeling in her left leg, her starting leg, due to a trapped nerve but was hoping for full feeling by mid 2018. During this period she married Oliver Barnes. She hoped to complete her rehabilitation by the end of January and to race at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.[8]

Return to track cycling

In late January 2019, three years after suffering career-threatening injuries, Williamson returned to competition. The now 25-year-old took part in the GB Cycling Team for sprint events for the 2018-19 UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Hong Kong.[9] and qualified for the 2019 Track World Championships.[10]
