The family of late Kiwi cyclist Olivia Podmore believe the latest review into the culture at Cycling New Zealand should have included more detail about the events leading up to the 24-year-old's death.
Podmore was found dead last August in Cambridge, just hours after sharing a message on social media about the pressure of being an elite athlete.
Podmore's mother Nienke Middleton and her husband Nick Middelton told AM the review lacked detail about Podmore's experience.
"The terms of reference were clear, but that doesn't mean that there shouldn't have been a lot more detail about Olivia,"
"We might as well be honest about it," Nick added.
The pair feel Podmore's experience hasn't been acknowledged.
"It has been ignored, it's complex because the coroner is in theory dealing with everything relating to Olivia, so Cycling New Zealand has said they're not allowed to address these issues, the coroner is handling it."
"It's a year away before we hear anything, well that could be two years after Olivia passed, well that doesn't seem good or fair," said Nick.
Nienke and Nick told AM they have not received a formal apology from Cycling New Zealand.
"A more sincere apology in person would have been a bit more acceptable, rather than just an email or letter of condolence," Nienke to AM.
The report that Podmore's family received over the weekend has left them feeling angry.
"Just angry that it wasn't addressed or taken seriously in 2018 and I believe that's why we are here now today and we shouldn't be," said Nienke.
The report will be made public this afternoon. Nick told AM: "let's hear how New Zealand finds it".
When asked what Podmore was like as a daughter and a young woman her mother said she was full of fun.
"Just always so much fun, laughing her head off at everything, really capable but at the end of the day she just loved cycling and just wanted to be the best and I feel like she just hasn't had that opportunity."
