Canada has a particularly strong presence at the UCI at this time, with Brian Jolly on the Mountain Bike Commission and Louis Barbeau on the Para Commission.  In addition, Matt Knight is the Road Coordinator and Kevin MacCuish the BMX Coordinator.

John Tolkamp said "[I am] honoured to be appointed to the UCI Track Commission and look forward to working with the rest of the commission members. I'm particularly excited as I feel track cycling has immense growth potential, marketability and presents a huge opportunity to strengthen and grow the popularity of cycling world wide."
