“Backing up Denmark wasn’t going to be easy, but I’m glad to say I managed it with another 2nd place in the World Cup in Germany. It was a good race, hopefully it was good to watch and once again I was pretty close to the big win.  It wasn’t to be and Sanne was once again stronger than me and full…

"That was a pretty good weekend in Denmark. After one lap of the course on Saturday, I wasn’t particularly keen and if I’m honest I wasn’t feeling very positive about it.  However after a swift talking to from the coach, I realised that if I break the course down into it’s component parts, it was …

"Since travelling back from the European Championships, I’ve had time to plan new goals for the second phase of the season.  It’s been really good for body and mind to spend some time at home after 9 weeks away with an intense racing block of 19 races.  Race 20 was my first ever race in Spain…

"Winning Koppenberg was a huge thrill. I was over the moon, and loved the battle with Katie Compton, one of the great ever female cross riders.  For many years it was my home race, and a part of my heart will always feel that way.  Four cobbles is something that will always make me smile, and…

"This week was a busy one with 3 race, two in Holland and one in Luxembourg. Starting in Holland in the small town of Woerden, I managed to finally take the win the famous night race, after 5 podiums in the past. A win is always good, and ahead of strong riders it helps show I'm really on track as…

“The first European World Cup is always a big event, and this year especially so as it was in Koksijde. The series didn’t get off to the best start for me over in America this year, but with every week I’m feeling better and my racing is improving. Sand races aren’t my forte but it’s certainly an …

"This weekend was a first major European road trip as I got to experience the EKZ Cross Tour for the first time after a long drive to Switzerland. It’s a series I’ve heard a lot about and have wanted to start for a long time. The race was a C1 in Aigle, the home of the UCI, and I’m happy to say to…

The World Championships are really the pinnacle of any season.  This season was a bit of unknown though, with the course in Bieles having never been raced on before.  Luxembourg put on a great show, with a spectacular course, crazy off cambers, some downhills among the s…
