Lizzie Armitstead wants track, road success at Commonwealth Games in Glasgow

Armtistead wants double in Glasgow

Cyclist Lizzie Armitstead has insisted that she wants success in both the track and road events at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow next summer.

The 24-year-old, who clinched a silver medal in the road race at the London 2012 Olympic Games, has claimed that she prefers the bunch races that aren't part of the programme at the Olympics.

"I'm aiming for the track as well [as the road] because it's the events I enjoy and have had some success in," BBC Sport quotes Armitstead as saying.

Armitstead is a multiple world medallist on the track.
