Qualification summary
TimelineThe following table outlines a timeline of the qualification events for cycling at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
Road cycling
A total of 180 cyclists (90 per gender) raced through the Paris 2024 course. Each NOC could enter a maximum of eight riders (four per gender) in road cycling with specific parameters: a maximum of four in the men's and women's road races and two in the men's and women's road time trial. The majority of the berths were attributed to a specific number of riders per NOC based on the UCI Road World Ranking list by nations for the 2022–2023 season.[11] As the host country, France reserved a single men's and women's quota place in the road race. When one or two French cyclists qualified directly and regularly, their spare slots were reallocated to the next highest-ranked eligible NOCs in the aforementioned events based on the national order of the UCI World Ranking list by 17 October 2023. The remainder of the total quota were offered to the two highest-ranked NOCs (each composed of a single rider) vying for qualification at three of the continental meets (Africa, Asia, and the Americas) and at the 2023 UCI World Championships in and around Glasgow, Scotland.[11][1] For the time trial, thirty-five spots per gender were awarded to the NOCs ranked 1 to 25 from the UCI World Ranking list, respecting the minimum continental distribution, and the rest with only a single quota place each from the 2023 World Championships.[11] Men's road raceQuotas as of November 2023.[12]

Each NOC could enter a maximum of four bikers (two per gender) in the men's and women's cross-country races. Host country France reserved one men's and women's quota place if unqualified, while two more spots were entitled to the eligible NOCs interested to have their mountain bikers compete for Paris 2024, as granted by the Universality principle.[16] The majority of the berths was awarded to the nineteen highest-ranked NOCs with a specific number of qualified bikers (a duo of riders for NOCs ranked 1 to 8 and a single rider for NOCs ranked 9 to 19) based on the points acquired throughout the biennial UCI Mountain Bike Olympic Qualification period (running from May 7, 2022, to May 26, 2024). Outside Europe and Oceania, the highest-ranked NOC per gender secured a single quota place at the cross-country continental championships for Africa, Asia, and the Americas. The remaining four spots were allocated to the top mountain bikers competing at the 2023 UCI World Championships in Glasgow and its outlying areas across Scotland, with two each in the elite and under-23, respectively.[16][4] Men's cross-country raceQuotas as of June 20 2024.[17]

Each NOC could enter a maximum of two riders per gender in the men's and women's freestyle park. Host country France reserved one men's and women's quota place if unqualified.[19] The initial half of the total quota was distributed to the highest-ranked BMX freestyle riders (by name) through a two-month-long Olympic Qualifier Series (May to June 2024), while the remaining five spots per gender were offered, first to the highest-ranked NOC from continents without a representative, then once all continents were represented, to the overall highest-ranked NOCs competing, at the 2022 UCI Urban Cycling World Championships in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (two) and then the 2023 UCI World Championships in Glasgow (three).[19] Men's freestyleQuotas as of June 26 2024.[20]

Seventeen of them with a specific number of qualified riders (a trio for the top two NOCs, a duo for NOCs ranked 3 to 5, and a single rider for NOCs ranked 6 to 10) received a coveted spot based on the points accumulated throughout the biennial UCI BMX Olympic Qualification period (running from August 1, 2022, to June 4, 2024).
