ABOUT

I'm a British handcyclist based in Caerphilly, South Wales and 2021 is my 4th year of competitive racing.

During 2018 & 2019 I competed both internationally in UCI events and nationally in the Paracycling National Series, personal highlights were a top 10 finish at the Paracycling Road World Cup in Emmen, Netherlands and finishing 3rd in the British National Series. 2020 was a year where both the national and international paracycling calendars we non-existent due to the pandemic. 2021 did get a little better in that I was able to race national and in turn won the British Cycling Paracycling National Championships Road Race and Time Trial, with the latter being my main target.

My medium-term goal is to become a British Cycling Programme rider though I'm fully aware that this will only become a reality so long as my development, results and performances continue to improve race by race year by year.

Long-term the goal is Paris 2024 and before that to become one of the best if not the best in the world by this time. Working full time allows me to finance travel and training costs, and I have an amazing family who support me in so many ways and who constantly make sacrifices and allowances, so that I can train and compete as needed.

JOIN THE JOURNEY

Would you or your organisation like to help me on my journey?

I am and always intend to be very honest about where I am with regards to my development as a hand-cyclist. I am still in the early stages of my journey, this year (2021) was due to be my third year of racing. Instead the year has turned in to another development year with minimal national racing.

I have been very lucky to receive some fantastic support from Workplace Wellbeing and the ArcticOne Foundation in 2020 which enabled me to purchase my new bike.

If you would like to find out a little more about how becoming a partner / sponsor would work please get in touch, I am always open to discussion.
