Lasse Norman Hansen (born 11 February 1992) is a Danish professional road and track racing cyclist, who currently rides for UCI ProTeam Uno-X Pro Cycling Team.[7] He turned professional in 2014.[2]

Biography[]

Hansen won the gold medal in the men's omnium at the 2012 Summer Olympics.[8][9] After two seasons with Blue Water Cycling, Hansen signed with the Garmin–Sharp squad for the 2014 and 2015 seasons.[10][11][12] Hansen was born in Faaborg, Denmark and currently resides in Girona, Catalonia, Spain.[2] He was named in the startlist for the 2017 Vuelta a España.[13] After the collapse of the Aqua Blue Sport team, in September 2018 he revealed that he would join the Corendon–Circus team on a two-year deal from the start of 2019, in part because they were willing to give him the freedom to compete on the track in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.[14]

In December 2020, he signed a one-year contract with Team Qhubeka Assos, for the 2021 season.[15]

In August 2021, he won the gold medal in the Madison track cycling at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games in partnership with Michael Mørkøv.

Personal life[]

He is the brother of racing cyclist Louise Norman Hansen.[16]
