ABOUT ME
In 2019 I retired from professional cycling, I had been racing my bike for over 15 years as a professional, and It was a career I can be immensely proud of.
I have experienced cycling though multiple disciplines at almost every level. I started off racing around muddy fields in Notts and Derby Cyclocross races as an U16 with my family. I went on to be part of the talent team with British Cycling and then progressed on to some of the best teams in the world. Competing at the highest level within the sport for road and cyclocross. Having raced at multiple European and World championships as well as the Olympic Games in Rio, I know there is so much more to being a good bike rider than just being given a training program.
Since retiring from professional cycling I have spent my time building a successful coaching buisness, Mudiiita Coaching and feel privileged to work with a wide variety of athletes across all levels and disciplines from Juniors and u23 to Elites, both male and female athletes. My focus Is now helping others on their path towards being the best they can be.
Coaching and mentoring individuals has become my passion. With over 15 years experience living my life as a professional cyclist I can honestly say without some key individuals who have helped push and guide me through those years, I would never have got as far as I did. I feel extremely lucky to have had some fantastic people around me through my career and I want to share with you some of the training, knowledge and guidance which had such a huge impact not only on my performance but on my confidence and happiness..
I understand the different disciplines, the differences between male and female physiology and the mindset which is needed to improve.
My aim is to inspire, coach and mentor the next generation of cyclists using my past experience, creating happy healthy bike riders.
