Career
Vernon competed in BMX until he was 14, before changing focus to the road and track.[5] In 2017 and 2018, he won a total of five national junior track titles. He also won the silver medal in the individual pursuit at the 2018 UCI World Junior Championships. He represented Wales at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in three events, finishing fourth in the team pursuit. He also competed for Great Britain in the team pursuit at the 2018–19 UCI Track Cycling World Cup, where the squad placed third in London. In 2020, he took his first major podium at the elite level, taking silver in the kilometer time trial at the European Championships.[6]
In 2021, he was selected for the team pursuit at the 2020 Summer Olympics, where the team placed 8th in final.[5][7] That year, the team also placed third at the UCI World Championships.
Vernon also took his first significant road win in 2021, winning the fourth stage of the Tour de l'Avenir in a sprint finish.[8] A month later, he placed seventh in the World Under-23 Time trial Championships.
In 2022, he joined Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl Team on a two-year contract.[9] In March, he won the fifth stage of the Volta a Catalunya, his first professional win.[10] Vernon next took back-to-back wins at the Okolo Slovenska in September, taking the prologue and first stage.[11]
In January 2023, Vernon won the Trofeo Palma, his second race of the season. A month later, he won the first two stages of the Tour du Rwanda followed by the first stage of the Tour de Romandie in April. In early August, he returned to the track, taking his first elite World Championships title in the elimination race.[12] A few weeks later, he returned to road racing, taking the prologue of the Deutschland Tour.[13]
That month, he also announced that he signed a three-year contract with Israel–Premier Tech starting in 2024.[14] In 2024, he won his first race of the year: the opening stage of the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes in February.[15] In May, he entered his first Grand Tour: the Giro d'Italia.
