Is the first time you have had support from the DRF? (if not, how long have you been funded)

This is the first year I have been supported by the Dave Rayner Fund.

What is your cycling history ? (how long have you been cycling?, who introduced you to cycling, which club are member of  in the UK?)

I first started cycling when I was about 10. This was following a visit to Manchester Velodrome to watch a race, I was that interested I wanted to have a go myself; and that is where it all started. Two years ago I was riding for Onimpex Bioracer in the UK.

What team are you joining in 2014? Tell us a bit about your team (any notable riders, famous DS anything like that)

Last year I rode for ASFRA Racing Team in Belgium, this is the team I will be riding for again this year.

Have they a website we can link to?

Here is a link to my team’s website: http://asfrateam.webs.com/

What is your race programme looking like?

My race program is filling up with different interclub and UCI races, which the team have scheduled me for.

Are you going on a training camp with the team?

I’m not going on a training camp with my team. However I will be spending the start of the year in Majorca, training with some fellow cyclists.

When are you heading out to Europe/USA?

I’m due to travel across to Belgium in early March for the start of the racing season.
