Edward Battell
Edward Battell was a British racing cyclist. He competed at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens.
Battell competed in the 333 metres, 100 kilometres, and road races. He came third in the road race,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Edward Battell Olympic Results )〕 87 km from Athens to Marathon and back. He came fourth in the 333m in 26.2 seconds. He was among the seven of the nine that started not to finish the 100 km.
==Amateurism protests==
Battell worked as a servant at the British Embassy in Greece. There were objections that he and another rider, Frederick Keeping, worked for a living. That made them "not gentlemen so they could not possibly be amateurs." The historian Mike Price said: "Gentlemen were not paid so were true amateurs. Servants had to be paid and so lost any claims to being amateur. Such was the attitude of the day. Protests were overruled.〔Price, Mike (2000), Days of Gold and Glory, privately published, UK〕〔(''Ullrich leads team-mates to podium'' ) The Sunday Times〕
