Despite the historic nature of her participation, Ukpeseraye did not finish the race, with no time recorded for her event. She, along with several other riders, was unable to stay with the peloton in the challenging Cote des Gardes section, leading to her early exit from the race.
Although her Olympic debut did not conclude as hoped, Ukpeseraye’s qualification for the Paris Games represents a significant step forward for Nigerian cycling. Her experience at the Olympics will serve as valuable preparation for future competitions. The journey has set the stage for her to return stronger and more experienced for the next Olympic cycle.
This landmark event underscores the progress and potential of Nigerian athletes on the global stage. With a growing presence in diverse sports, Nigeria continues to build its reputation and inspire future generations of athletes.
