With the men's road race set to kick-off the 2016 Rio Olympic Games cycling events on Saturday 6 August, Team GB's squad have been in action on the Brazilian streets in preparation for the 256.4km race.
Team GB train on the Rio roads
Fresh from retaining his Tour de France title - and in the process becoming the first British rider to win the Tour three times - Chris Froome is one of the biggest names in the OIympic road race line-up.
Froome, who won Olympic time trial bronze in London in 2012, is already proving to be a firm fan favourite in Brazil.
Team GB are in a unique position for the Olympic road race - boasting both the Tour de France yellow jersey winner Froome and the winner of the white jersey, Adam Yates, in their squad.
For 23-year-old Yates, it has been an incredible build-up to his Olympic debut. Along with the white jersey for the best young rider, Yates finished fourth overall in the general classification in just the Bury-rider's second Tour de France.
Another rider who will be looking forward to Saturday's race is Steve Cummings - who also had cause to celebrate in France last month. Cummings' solo attack on stage seven of the Tour gave him his second stage win in as many years.
Geraint Thomas takes on the streets of Rio just days after competing at the Prudential RideLondon, where he came within a few kilometres of what would have been a very popular win, before being caught by the peloton.
Two-time track Olympic gold medalist Thomas has form on the road at major events, having won Commonwealth Games gold in Glasgow two years ago. Could the Welshman strike again in Brazil?
Ian Stannard completes the five-man line-up, although could there be a late entrant to join Team GB in Rio?
The Team GB men have been boosting their ranks with a number of local commuters during their training rides.
Saturday's race starts and finishes at the Fort Copacabana, which is set at one end of Copacabana Beach. The route sees riders head along a coastal road through a series of beaches and national parks. It could prove to be the most beautiful backdrop to an Olympic road race in history, so it's only right that the squad took time to appreciate it during their ride.
