We are only halfway through the year, and the Danish cyclists have already won 28 gold medals, coming close to surpassing the record set in 1999 with 32 victories. However, it’s important to note that 1999 is not considered a reliable benchmark because many of the winners during that time admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs.
- With 28 victories, Denmark is in fourth place in Europe, after Belgium (42 victories); France (36 victories) and Netherlands (35 victories). Belgium is the world’s leading cycling nation with an abundance of great cycling talent and an impressive cycling culture.
