Road race, individual
The Olympic road race, one of the most iconic events at the Games is also one with the most turnover in medals. No rider has ever won two gold medals, and only one rider has won two medals; Alexander Vinokourov of Kazakhstan, with a gold medal in London 2012, following a silver medal in Sydney 2000.
Time trial, individual
The individual time trial has been held in two distinct periods; as an amateurs only race until 1932, followed by a long haitus before returning as an open event in 1996 to include elite professional riders. Two riders have won a pair of gold medals in the time trial, both in the professional era. Viatcheslav Ekimov, representing Russia and Fabian Cancellara for Switzerland. Tom Dumoulin of the Netherlands, and Chris Froome of Great Britain have also won two medals each, though neither of them gold. Bradley Wiggins in 2012, is the only rider to win time trial gold, or any Olympic road racing gold, in the same year as winning the maillot jeune of the Tour de France.
