YEARS RIDING
I’ve been riding for about 10 years, I started off riding to cafes with my dad to get fit. When I met my husband he was a racer and I realised standing on the sideline wasn’t going to cut it, I wanted a piece of the action.
Primary ride style? E.g road, mountain, commute etc.

PRIMARY RIDE STYLE
I am a cyclocross racer at heart and that is definitely my favourite discipline, however I love riding my road bike and I will turn my hand to a bit of mountain biking if needs must.

FAVOURITE RIDE PLACE/ROUTE
The Peak District.

FAVOURITE POST-RIDE FOOD/DRINK
Pie, Chips and a Shandy – the ultimate athletes diet.

BIKE NAMES
None!

CLIMB VS. DESCEND?
Ooh this is a tough one, I will say climb (but nothing too steep)

DREAM RIDE
I would love to tour round South America, it’s a place I have never visited but I hope to one day. I am also desperate to take my mountain bike to New Zealand.

FULL LYCRA, Y/N?
On the road bike always full lycra, on the mountain bike I like the baggies.

DREAM RACE/EVENT
I would love to race a big Belgian cross race like Zonhoven or Koksijde.

I LOVE RIDING WITH
I love riding with friends.

QUOTE/MOTTO
“A little party never killed nobody” Peter Sagan

WHY DO YOU RIDE?
To challenge myself, to stay sane and to set a good example to my daughter.

SKILL YOU WISH YOU COULD MASTER BUT HAVEN’T (YET)
Bunny hopping the hurdles on a cyclocross bike.
