Storey picks up gold in time trial

Great Britain's Paralympic cyclist Sarah Storey has claimed her third gold medal of the Games after winning the women's individual C5 time trial.

Storey, who clinched double gold in the velodrome last week, was favourite to take the top honour at Brands Hatch today and she didn't disappoint as she recorded the fastest time of 22:40.66s.

The British Paralympian stormed through the trial and it was Poland's Anna Harkowska who was the closest to rivalling Storey but could only finish the course in 24:14.94.

Kelly Crowley of the USA managed to round off the podium places by snatching bronze with a third-best time of 25:14.51s.
