Born in Douglas, Isle of Man, Tim used to have a strong interest in football but Kennaugh was quick to follow in the footsteps of his older brother Peter Kennaugh, he was selected to ride for the British Talent Team in 2007[2] before becoming a member of British Cyclings Olympic Development Programme.[3]

In 2009, he became one of the youngest riders to ever win the Manx National Road Race Championships. On 14 October 2009 it was confirmed that Kennaugh was to become a member of the Olympic Academy.[4]
