I joined LEC in mid-2019 but before that I had always enjoyed getting out on my bike with my family.

I think that cyclocross is my favourite as every time it is different and has something new. I find road too similar so I get a bit bored sometimes!

My favourite race was the Herne Hill Cyclocross race this year. I found the course very quick and I got my best result to date.

Dismounting and remounting has been really great to practice and learn.
