'You did it mummy!': Dame Sarah Storey becomes the most successful female British Paralympian ever as she wins gold in Rio

With a spectacular display of the grace, power and speed that has defined her glittering career, Dame Sarah Storey (pictured) became Britain's greatest female Paralympian in Rio de Janeiro last night. 


The 38-year-old cyclist won her 12th gold medal with victory in the C5 3,000m individual pursuit - before finding her three-year-old daughter Louisa (left) in the crowd. In the final she beat fellow Briton Crystal Lane, who had to settle for silver.
