Medal record

Axel Arne Berg (3 December 1909 – 15 February 1997) was a Swedish road racing cyclist who competed in the 1932 and 1936 Summer Olympics. In 1932 he finished 20th individually and won a team bronze medal. Four years later he finished 16th in the individual road race. The Swedish road racing team was unplaced, because Berg was the only Swedish finisher.[1][2]
After retiring from competitions Berg worked as a motor mechanic.[3]
