Description

Joshua Michael Tarling (born 15 February 2004) is a Welsh track and road cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Netcompany–Ineos. He is the 2025 World champion in the points race. A World Junior champion in the time trial, he won the elite time trial at the 2023 European Road Cycling Championships at the age of 19.

Early and personal life
Tarling was born and grew up in Aberaeron, Ceredigion, west Wales. He speaks English and Welsh. He has a younger brother, Finlay Tarling, who is also a cyclist and has signed to the Israel Premier Tech Academy for the 2025 season. Their father, Michael, is a keen cyclist who used to race at Newport Velodrome. In 2012, Tarling’s parents started the West Wales Cycle Racing Team, in part to address the lack of cycling clubs in the area.

Tarling started racing when he was around six years old. He has described that he was “pretty much a full-time cyclist from the age of 10”, travelling across the UK and Europe with his family for races. He raced his first time trial when he was 12 years old. Tarling has moved from Wales to Andorra since turning professional in 2023.
