Cycling career

In 2016, Carlin won his first senior international medal when taking silver at the European Track Championships in the team sprint.[2][3]

In 2018 he won silver medals at the World Championships in both the sprint and team sprint. This was followed by silver in the sprint at the Commonwealth Games and bronze at the European Championships in the keirin.

Carlin again achieved a silver medal in the team sprint at the 2020 World Championships. He then went on to become a double olympic medallist in Tokyo, winning silver and bronze in the team sprint and sprint respectively.[4]

At the 2022 British National Track Championships in Newport, Wales he won three more British titles (having previously won five) after winning the sprint, keirin and the team sprint.[5] Later that year, he won silver in the keirin and bronze in the sprint at the 2022 Commonwealth Games.[6] The latter was awarded following the relegation of Matthew Glaetzer in the deciding race after he was adjudged to have deviated from his racing line and unduly interfered with Carlin's sprint.[7]
