Is the first time you have had support from the Dave Rayner Fund?
Yes.

What is your cycling history?
I have always enjoyed cycling. I’d ride to school and do the odd ride here and there, but it wasn’t until I became a 2nd year Junior that I started racing. I was approached by my local club, Audlem CC and they offered great guidance in my first season. I continued the first part of the 2016 season with Audlem, taking on a new coach, Richard Bott (who used to race at British Elite level). I participated in my first UCI race during my time in the UK and moved to Belgium at the end of May with the Handi-ness organization and have progressed up to a Belgian team.

What team are you joining in 2016?

Goma Dakwerken - VDB Steenhouwerij C.T.

Tell us a bit about your team.

They are a BVB Team run by Gerry Vande Pontseele, made up of 21 Riders including Kevin Van Impe who has previously raced at WorldTour level.

Do they have they a website/FaceBook or Twitter we can link to?
