Mark Bristow

Cycling Disciplines

Mark Bristow is an English Paralympic cyclist, born on 8 July 1962 in Nazeing near Waltham Abbey in Essex, who now lives in Sacramento, California. He took up disability cycling after being injured in a bike crash in San Francisco in September 1997. He works as a computer administrator, is related to the darts player Eric Bristow, and was appointed MBE for services to disabled sport in the 2009 New Year Honours. His English Wikipedia article is short and gives no list of his events or medals, so his count of Paralympic gold medals is left open here until a source that states it is found.
