Missed Championships
It was the British Cycling that announced back in January that Kenny would be unable to attend the Six Day Berlin. And also, British Championships events. The real reasons were unknown, but now we know why.
Even though, according to her pregnancy timing, she could make a perfect return for the 2020 Olympic Games that will be held in Tokyo. But, unfortunately, this also means Kenny will take a break from her bike missing April’s Track World Championships that will be held in Hong Kong.
