What I wouldn’t give to be on a cycling team,whether as a rider or as a mechanic.
A personal goal I have for all cycling fans is to realize this: everything that you do to support women’s cycling matters. You can positively influence cycling culture, the media, sponsors, and other decision-makers with even the simplest, seemingly insignificant actions. Just months ago, I was feeling frustrated with the state of women’s cycling especially because I felt that I wasn’t doing enough to support the sport; I didn’t fully appreciate and understand the positive impacts of things that I was already doing or considering to do.
Individually, we cannot do everything, but we can each do something; our collective and cumulative efforts to celebrate and support women’s cycling will make a lasting difference.

I’m going to make a controversial statement; cycling gets a bad rap. In my opinion cycling is one the sports doing the most to clean up the sporting landscape and other sports would do well to follow in it’s footsteps.
We’re not the drug fuelled athletes painted by the media. We are the sport which tests the most and therefore catches the cheats.
