Great Britain track cyclist Ethan Hayter says he has been forced to miss this weekend's Track Cycling World Cup in Berlin due to concussion sustained when he was hit by a car earlier this month.
Writing on Instagram, the 20-year-old Londoner said: "Unfortunately I won't be competing at the Berlin World Cup this week as originally announced.
"Sustained a concussion at the start of the month after being hit by a car and not quite recovered.
"Plan/hope to be back racing at the London round," he added.
One of British Cycling's rising stars, Hayter won the omnium at the European Championships in Glasgow earlier this year.
On the road, he placed fifth in the Under-23 time trial and eighth in the Under-23 road race at the road world championships in Innsbruck-Tirol, and also had a spell as a stagiaire with Team Sky.

A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
