Harry Hudson (born 29 August 2007) is a British junior road cyclist.
Hudson is a two-time British Hill Climb Champion in the junior category. In 2024, at 17 years old, Hudson's winning time would have placed third in the elite category.[1]
In 2025, Hudson won the junior edition of Liège-Bastogne-Liège in a controversial finish. On the final climb of Côte de La Redoute, Hudson and Belgian Leander De Gendt were sprinting to the finish line before a police motorbike moved in front of De Gendt, causing him to change his line and lose the sprint.[2][3] De Gendt's team contested the result, with the jury determining that the Belgian's sprint was disrupted, but the outcome would not change as Hudson was not at fault.[2]
