Olympic qualification
This time trial was also part of the qualification of the women's time trial at the 2016 Summer Olympics. The first ten nations in the time trial qualified one athlete.
Course
The individual time trial was contested on a circuit of 15 km on and has a total elevation of 96 m off us. The elite women rode two laps of the circuit.
The circuit was a technical course that went through the city of Richmond. From the start, the route headed west from downtown to Monument Avenue, a paver-lined, historic boulevard that's been named one of the "10 Great Streets in America." From there, the course made a 180-degree turn at N. Davis Avenue and continued in the opposite direction. The race then cut through the Uptown district before coming back through Virginia Commonwealth University and then crossing the James River. After a technical turnaround, the race came back across the river and worked its way through downtown Richmond, eventually heading up to ascend 300 m off us on Governor Street. At the top, the riders had to take a sharp left turn onto the false-flat finishing straight, 680 m off us to the finish.
