Biography

Blackmore finished third at the 2022 National Cyclo-Cross Championships.[3] He joined Team Inspired from ROTOR Race Team.[4]

In 2022, he was selected for the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, where he competed in the men's mountain biking cross country and finished in 5th place, a result he counts as the best on his career. [1][3][5]

Blackmore took his first UCI Cyclocross win at Clanfield in the 2022-2023 season, beating national champion Thomas Mein in the process and finished 2nd in the National Cyclocross Championships, winning the U23 title. Despite racing lightly due to a busy Mountainbike schedule finished 8th in his only U23 World Cup race of the season in France.[6]
