Cycling at the 2022 Commonwealth Games

Cycling at the 2022 Commonwealth Games was the 21st appearance of Cycling at the Commonwealth Games. The cycling competition at the 2022 Commonwealth Games was held between 29 July and 7 August 2022 at four different venues. There were 26 events altogether in cycling, making the sport third-highest in terms of number of medals available. There were 20 events in track cycling, two in mountain biking, two in road time trials and two in road racing.

Schedule
The competition schedule was as follows: ==Venues==
Venues
Three of the four cycling venues were located within the West Midlands region: • Myton Fields was the start/finish location for a road race course that circulated through Warwick and Leamington Spa. • West Park in Wolverhampton was the start/finish location for a road time trial course that stretched to Dudley. • Cannock Chase Forest was the venue for mountain biking. In addition, it was decided that the Lee Valley VeloPark in London, more than 100 miles away from Birmingham, would host the track cycling. This caused backlash amongst residents in the West Midlands, and even resulted in a petition that was signed by 6,000 locals that urged for a new velodrome to be built in the West Midlands instead of using one in London. Nonetheless, a new velodrome in the West Midlands was ruled out on grounds of cost. ==Qualification (parasport)==
