Great Britain's Sarah Storey has won her 36th Para-cycling gold at the Cycling World Championships.

The 45-year-old was the second starter in the C5 individual time trial and set a time of 39 minutes 48.89 seconds over a 28.2km course in Dumfries.

That was comfortably enough for Storey to clinch gold, with Australia's Alana Foster 1:14.41 slower in second.

Storey's team-mate Morgan Newberry finished 3:23.59 behind the Paralympic legend in fifth.

Storey is aiming to add to her tally of 17 Paralympic golds - including five from swimming - in Paris next year.
