GLASGOW, United Kingdom 鈥� Canadian cyclist Mel Pemble held on to her women's C3 omnium title at the UCI Cycling Championships in Glasgow, Scotland.
Pemble secured the championship after completing four events for a total of 154 points.
The Victoria cyclist previously won a bronze medal in the time trial event as well as a silver in the women's C3 scratch race.
The success follows a three-medal day on Monday.
Keely Shaw of Midale, Sask., won a silver medal in the C3 individual pursuit qualifiers while Dylan Bibic of Mississauga, Ont., also took home a silver in the men's C2 to add to Pemble's Monday haul.
