Ripples in the pond

For the last while, I didn't know what to do, what to say, how to say it... and I didn't feel like I had a story to tell. No. That's not right. I didn't feel like I had the story that I wanted to tell.

If you can’t be fit, at least be fresh

(def) Start doing something too soon, act too hastily. For example, Tiffo jumped the gun on riding an Audax 600; it shouldn't have happened for another two months when she had trained more. Good thing Audax has a ride so aptly named so early in the season that allows us to do 'stupid things'...

Will lab rat for data

If you were given the chance to get a lab test on your heart and your fitness, would you take it up? Or is it better, as well as less confrontational, just riding on feel. I took the opportunity to get myself tested, but I wasn't quite prepared for how I'd react to it. Warning: this post contains data.

The Oppy: a 24 hour festa di bici

The Oppy is a unique 24 hour team time trial in which teams ride a route of their own choosing to a common finishing point. The minimum distance required is 360km. I bet we could go further if we planned an all night bike party. Here's how the 'festivities' played out.

A lot of recovery with some riding in between

The Audax Super Randonneur award was established by Audax Club Parisien in 1977. It consists of a Brevets de Randonneurs Mondiaux series: 200 km, 300 km, 400 km, 600 km, all completed in the same Randonneur year. Or, in this case, in one four week block.

2020 should have come with a trigger warning

Hearing that the podcast I'd done with Sparta Chicks was the 2nd most popular episode of the year has really made me reflect on how much 2020 has changed me. So this is a bit of a deep dive into what I've worked on and learned this year. And it's not only about cycling.

So who wants to dance with the rabbit down the hole? : PODCAST

It’s not often (okay, it’s like never) that I let people see into what I refer to as Wonderland... which is my own personal madness. So this podcast is way outside my comfort zone. But it’s an important conversation to have. Because mental health doesn’t discriminate. And we all need to work together to break the stigma. So have a listen... and please be gentle with your feedback.

Awkwardly Gritty: PODCAST

Gulp. Here it is... 🎤🎧🙈 As you’ll get from the podcast intro it’s pretty ... real. Before recording this I'd had feedback from other athletes that no one really talks about the gritty stuff. So here’s the gritty. Ps: it’s not a race Pps: use headphones
