Megan Lane (born 4 July 1991) is a Canadian Olympic dressage rider.[1] She participated at two World Equestrian Games (in 2014 and 2018). Her best results were achieved during the 2014 edition, when she placed 9th with the Canadian team in the team competition, and 37th in the individual competition aboard Caravella.

Lane is a multiple medalist from the North American junior and young riders' dressage championships.[3] She was also named the Dressage Canada Owner of the year in 2014 due to her successes over the years with her own Dutch Warmblood mare Caravella.[4]

In July 2016, she was named to Canada's Olympic team.[5] At the Olympics held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Lane placed 32nd in the individual dressage.
