RIO DE JANEIRO -- Thunder Bay’s Robbi Weldon will not be bringing home a Paralympics medal in 2016.
The visually impaired cyclist and her partner Audrey Lemieux on Saturday finished in fifth place in the woman’s cycling road race, 3:14 seconds behind winner Iwona Podkoscielna and Aleksandra Teclaw of Poland.
Weldon and Lemieux completed the course in 2:01:16, tied with fourth-place finisher Lora Turnham and Corrine Hall of Great Britain.
Ireland’s Katies Dunlevy and Evelyn McCrystal took silver, while New Zealand’s Emma Foy and Laura Thompson captured bronze.
Weldon was seventh earlier this week in the cycling time trials, a race won by Dunlevy.
