Paul Manning has resigned as women's endurance coach at British Cycling.
The 46-year-old, who won men's team pursuit gold at the 2008 Olympics, has been part of the coaching set-up for more than 10 years.
The women's team have won every Olympic medal available during Manning's tenure as coach and won European team pursuit gold in Bulgaria last week.
"I will forever remain very proud of the performances I have contributed to," Manning said.
The Great Britain team won team pursuit gold in a world record time at the 2012 Olympics in London and successfully defended their title four years later in Rio.
"I feel I am leaving the squad well prepared for the final push to Tokyo [in] 2021," Manning added.
British Cycling sacked senior coach Kevin Stewart earlier in November for gross misconduct and a "long-term pattern of inappropriate relationships" with riders.
Manning's resignation is unrelated to the incident.
Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud moved closer to Thierry Henry's goal-scoring record as France survived a late rally to relegate Sweden.
Giroud netted in each half to move to 44 goals, seven behind the Arsenal legend's mark.
A deflected Viktor Claesson shot put Sweden ahead but Giroud's double and a goal from full-back Benjamin Pavard turned things around.
Robin Quaison's goal gave Sweden some hope but Kingsley Coman sealed the win.
Sweden will now drop into League B.
World champions France had already qualified for one of the four Nations League finals berths next year but went behind when Claesson's long-range strike went in off Raphael Varane.
Giroud soon equalised, turning in a cross from Marcus Thuram, the son of 1998 World Cup-winner Lilian.
Thuram, who was making his first competitive start, then weaved into the area and found Bayern Munich right-back Pavard, who fired in.
Giroud added a third after the break from Kylian Mbappe's cross, the Paris St-Germain striker getting an assist 70 seconds after coming on.
Quaison set up an exciting finale when he tapped in but as Sweden pushed everyone - including Everton goalkeeper Robin Olsen - up for a set-piece deep into stoppage-time, France were able to clear and leave Coman to score into an empty net.

England midfielder Jack Grealish "thrives under pressure" and can handle the expectation on him, says manager Gareth Southgate.
The Aston Villa playmaker excelled in Sunday's 2-0 defeat by Belgium, which ended England's chances of reaching the Nations League finals next year.
"Jack has had a super start to his international career; I think he will be able to handle the attention," Southgate said.
"We will succeed or fail as a team."

But the Mariana snailfish is not only abundant in this area; it’s the region’s top predator. How does an animal make a living in such an extreme place?

Northern Ireland have been relegated from Nations League B after Uefa awarded Romania a 3-0 victory for their cancelled match against Norway.
Uefa made the ruling on Wednesday after Sunday's meeting between the sides was called off because of a positive Covid-19 test in the Norway camp.
It leaves Northern Ireland six points adrift of Romania, who they play at Windsor Park on Wednesday evening in their last Group B1 match.
NI have one point from five matches.
Sunday's match in Romania between Romania and Norway was cancelled after the Norwegians were not able to travel to take part.
Uefa said the matter was submitted to its control, ethics and disciplinary body "for a decision to be taken in accordance with the special rules applicable to the league phase of the 2020-21 Uefa Nations League, as approved by the Uefa executive committee on 29 August 2020".
The governing body said it took the following decision: "To declare the 2020-21 Uefa Nations League match between Romania and Norway, that was scheduled to be played on 15 November 2020, as forfeited by the Norwegian Football Association (who is therefore deemed to have lost the match 3-0) for being responsible for the match not taking place."
Sitting three points behind Romania at the bottom of Group B1 before the decision was made, Northern Ireland had hoped that victory on Wednesday in Belfast would have given them a chance of avoiding relegation.

"Love Don't Cost a Thing" is a song recorded by American singer Jennifer Lopez for her second studio album J.Lo (2001). It was released on December 2, 2000 by Epic Records as the lead single from the album. The song was written by Damon Sharpe, Greg Lawson, Georgette Franklin, Jeremy Monroe and Amille D. Harris, and produced by Ric Wake, Richie Jones and Cory Rooney. At the time of the song's release, Lopez was transitioning into a s ex symbol and in a relationship with American rapper Sean Combs. Lyrically, "Love Don't Cost a Thing" is described as an "exploration of love" in which Lopez is unhappy about her materialistic lover; provoking much media analysis as to whether or not it was an innuendo towards Combs. Ultimately, the pair's courtship ended shortly after its release. Described as "frothy" and "catchy" by critics, it was noted for its message about love and commercial appeal to women.
All former presidents of Peru since 1985 have been prosecuted since leaving office.
