Colin Lynch (born 16 December 1970) is a retired Paralympic cyclist competing in C2 classification events for Ireland.
The London 2012 Paralympic Games were a disappointment for Lynch as he missed winning a bronze medal in the 3 km Pursuit by 1/10th of a second.
In 2015, disappointment again – losing out in the bronze medal ride-off in the 3 km Pursuit in the Track Cycling World Championships in the Netherlands.
On 1 October 2016 in Manchester, UK, Lynch was the first Paracycling rider to set an Hour Record under revised and approved UCI rules.
The tumour was removed but the cast was placed too tightly on his foot and caused tissue damage, and his left leg had to be amputated below the knee.
