A Little Bit About Me...

Thought I should start by telling you a bit about myself...

I'm 17 and this year will be my first as XC MTB racer, I'm also a sailor and will be doing all this while studying for my A-levels.

I've been sailing since I was 8 and currently own a Europe dinghy  for club racing. I'm lucky enough to also have a spot as foredeck/mast on a Beneteau First 35. My aims for this year are to keep up the sailing, retain my ladies race trophy and compete at the Europe nationals. 

I don't remember a time when I wasn't riding bikes but I made the decision to take it to the next level last September  This season I will be racing in the Pedal-On Southern XC series as a junior. XC MTB riding was my decision as I own a road bike and and hardtail but always preferred riding off-road, XC was an obvious choice as good downhill and trails are hard to come by round my way an there is good XC riding on the doorstep.

Details of my bikes and boat will be in future posts but for now, get out and ride!
