RIDING STYLE: XC MTB, CX

BIO

I’ve been cycling since I was little as my parents have always ridden, but I got into racing after competing in a Borough cycling event in primary school, and found it was something I enjoyed a lot. Watching women's XC World Cup races has inspired me a lot over the past few years to race, and each race I compete in gives me new opportunities to learn and gain more experience, which has allowed me to grow not only as an athlete on the bike but also skills I can implement off the bike.


NOTABLE CARRER MOMENTS

One of my most notable moments in cycling has to be the Three Nations Cup, at Houfalize. Which was one of the most technical courses I have ridden, while I came away with 4th this was a huge achievement for me and pushed my limits both technically and physically and was a course that put me out of my comfort zone the most.

IMPACT OF SAINT PIRAN

Saint Piran has caught my eye as they offer the opportunities to race abroad giving me the opportunity to race and gain experience at more challenging courses, to allow me to continue to progress in the sport. As well as allowing me to set new goals for next season, to be able to compete in marathon races, which I am super excited about, as well as having to balance uni work, Saint Piran has shown a high level of support that they are ready to offer me. I am super excited to get racing the cyclocross season for Saint Piran as well as 2024 XC  MTB season.
