Steffan Lloyd

At his debut Paralympics, Steffan Lloyd secured gold as pilot for James Ball in the men’s B 1000m time trial, helping Ball claim his first Paralympic gold medal.

Steffan discovered his love for cycling through watching it on TV, so went along to some taster sessions at the Geraint Thomas National Velodrome and was instantly hooked.

Piloting fellow Welshman James Ball he won gold in the tandem team sprint at the 2022 Para-cycling World Championships in France alongside Libby Clegg and Georgia Holt.

In front of a home crowd at the 2023 World Championships at the Chris Hoy Velodrome in Glasgow the pair won silver in the men’s 1KM time trial.

The pairing won two medals at the 2024 World Championships in Rio de Janeiro with silver in the Men’s 1Km time trial and Bronze in the men’s tandem sprint.

Steffan competed for Wales at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham piloting Alex Pope where they narrowly missed out on a bronze medal to Australia. Growing up, Steffan’s aspiration was to play rugby for Wales.
