A total of 180 cyclists (90 per gender) will race through the plains and climbs of the Paris 2024 road cycling course, with four of them racing on home soil: as host nation, France has been allocated two quota places per gender.
Each NOC can qualify a maximum of eight athletes (four per gender) but there are specific limitations for each event:
- 4 cyclists per gender per NOC - maximum for the Road Race
- 2 cyclists per gender per NOC - maximum for the individual time trial
There are three ways to qualify for the road races: UCI Road World Ranking by Nations, the 2023 UCI Road World Championships Elite Road Race, and the 2023 Continental Championships (except for Europe and Ocenia).
National Olympic Committees (countries) which do not qualify any quota places through the UCI Road World Ranking by Nations or the results of the 2023 UCI Road World Championships can qualify a maximum of one quota place per gender through the Elite Road Race from the respective 2023 Continental Championships as follows:
- Africa: 2 highest ranked NOCs, 1 rider qualified per NOC
- America: 2 highest ranked NOCs, 1 rider qualified per NOC
- Asia: 2 highest ranked NOCs, 1 rider qualified per NOC
In this case, African countries like Zambia will use the Accra 2023 Africa Games to be held in March 2024 as a qualification opportunity for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, specifically for the road race cycling category.
