I'm a journalist with an unhealthy addiction to bicycles. My first job was at a local newspaper, but it didn't take long before I combined by career with my hobby. I've since been Editor at Total Women's Cycling and joined the Cycling Weekly team in February 2017. In the summer, I'm into road racing and crit racing. When winter arrives, it's all about track cycling. Cyclocross would be on the cards if the riding to bike-cleaning ratio felt more heavily weighted towards turning the pedals. My primary bike is a custom Werking machine, built up in the Dolomites region in Italy, but off-the-peg I'm partial to the Specialized Tarmac.
