Katie Archibald won gold in the women's omnium at the UEC European Championships in Glen Henn on Friday.
Archibald won the scratch, tempo, and elimination races, and in the decisive points race, she was one of three riders to win by a lap and move to the top of the points standings with 155 points.
He won the title ahead of runner-up Daria Pikulik (Poland) and third-place finisher Lotte Kopecky (Belgium), both with 124 points.
Archibald also won gold in the British women's team pursuit on Thursday. Her victory in the omnium was her 19th title at the European Championships.
"I have five big goals between now and the Games. That's one way to look at it, but another is that it's a European title.
"I was quite nervous. In the scratch race I couldn't calm down like I usually do. I thought I ran too hard, especially when you win, you start the race feeling confident. I could see that everyone else ran just as hard."
In the other women's events, the German pairing of Leah Zofie Friedrich and Pauline Zofie Grabosch took gold and silver in the sprint. Sophie Capewell competed against Mathilde Gros (France) in the bronze medal match.
Oliver Wood won his first gold medal in the scratch race against Roy Efting (Netherlands) and Donavan Grondin (France).
In the men's individual pursuit, former Hour record holder Dan Bingham set a new course record in qualifying with a top time of 4:02.775 in Grenchen.
In Friday's final, however, Italy's Jonathan Milano won in 4:03.744, and Bigham ended up with the silver medal.
Tobias Buck-Gramko (Germany) won the bronze medal against Corantin Hermeneau (France).
