Biography
I live in Edinburgh and I’m in my final year at school. I started racing in mountain bike races back in 2009 but soon discovered road racing and decided it was for me. I also started racing the track around the same time and now I’m about to start my second year as a junior racing in those 2 disciplines.

Who inspires you and why
Peter Sagan, I love how he just does what he wants and doesn’t care what anyone else thinks with his finish celebrations and everything else.
How do you celebrate/relax after a big event:
Try and meet up with my friends who I can’t see very often because I’m always away racing or training!
