In the time since I officially retired from competitive sport after the Beijing Olympic Games, I have taken much pleasure in sharing my love of cycling and years of knowledge and experience with hundreds of people.

I love teaching people to ride. I love showing people what they can enjoy on a bike. I love being a part of people’s journey of overcoming fears and feeling excited and proud of themselves. I love it when these new, ‘never cycled before’ people become hooked on their bicycle. I love it when people’s eyes are opened up to a whole other world of freedom, endorphins, relationships and happiness. I love how the simple act of ‘learning to ride’ turns into so much more.

We each have a different background with such inspiring stories as to why we ride, how we got into it, the challenges we have faced, the reasons why we decided to take the plunge, and why we keep doing what we do. So in this space, I hope to capture these stories ‘your story’ of the various individuals who have come to learn and enjoy riding a  bike, which may strike a chord with you and provide inspiration to also feel alive, healthy and happy.

‘Your Story’ Coming soon…
