Competition format
The C category is for cyclists with a physical impairment (muscle power or range of motion, and impairments affecting the coordination) that prevents them from competing in able-bodied competition but still competes using a standard bicycle.
The competition starts with a qualifying round where it comprises a head-to-head race between the 14 cyclists. The 2 fastest cyclists in the qualifying would qualify to the gold medal final while the 3rd and 4th fastest will qualify to the bronze medal final where they will race head-to-head. The distance of this event is 4000 metres. The medal finals are also held on the same day as the qualifying.
