Barney Storey

Following the Beijing Games, Storey was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire in the 2009 New Year Honours.

At the UCI Para-cycling Track World Championships in Manchester in 2009 Storey teamed up with former Paralympic sprinter Neil Fachie. Together they broke the 1 km time trial world record for the B&VI 1 classification which had been set by Storey in partnership with Kappes.

At the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing, China, Storey competed as the pilot for Kappes in the B&VI 1–3 classification. In the 1 km time trial they set a new world record time of one minute 2.864 seconds to win the gold medal. Storey and Kappes won their second gold medal of the Games in the B&VI 1–3 sprint. The pair defeated Argentina and Japan en route to the final which they won 2–0 against Australia. The medal came less than an hour after Barney's wife Sarah had won Paralympic gold in the same velodrome competing in the women's individual pursuit.

At the 2004 Summer Paralympics he participated in two tandem track cycling events, acting as the sighted pilot for Daniel Adam Gordon. The pair finished fourth in the sprint and fifth in the 1 km time trial. In 2005 he won the British national title for the 200 metres tandem sprint competing with Craig MacLean. At the 2006 British National Tandem Sprint Championships held in Newcastle Storey defended the title partnered by partially sighted Paralympian Anthony Kappes; this made them the first Paralympic team to hold the able-bodied national title. Storey won gold medals in both the sprint and time trial at the 2006 World Disability Championships and defended both titles successfully in 2007.
