🚴‍♀️ Lone Wolf, Borrowed Bidon & a Comeback for the Win 🏆🔥 Ahhh Trebujena. Quiet little place, best known for its wine, wetlands, and — as of this past weekend — hosting the latest round of the Copa de AndalucĂa Fem đź’Ą. What better way to spend a Sunday than baking in the heat, riding…
101km of Dust, Grit, and Madness in Ronda ¡Hola from the pain cave! Last weekend, I threw myself headfirst into one of the wildest events in Spain: La LegiĂłn 101 de Ronda. Just me, my mountain bike, and about 3,200 other mad souls who all thought, “Sure, let’s ride 101 km with 2,700 metres of…
There’s nothing quite like a hill climb to remind you that gravity’s a bit of a jerk. Yesterday was the 12ÂŞ Cronoescalada Pinturas Sergio de Cártama, which, in the local dialect, roughly translates to “let’s go uphill until someone cries.” That someone was nearly me. But not because I was slow—I was flying. Or at…
I was out doing sprint efforts the other day—nothing too dramatic, just trying to convince my legs to behave—when this older gent rolls up alongside me. Friendly enough, but after a few glances at my bike he says, “Your tyres look a bit soft, love.” Oh? Do they now? He asks what pressures I’m running,…
If you ever want to test your mental strength, I highly recommend racing 90km straight into a vendaval (gale-force wind) that makes you question all your life choices. Day one of the Vuelta AlmerĂa was, in one word: brutal. The kind of headwind that makes you feel like you’re cycling through miel de caña (molasses)…
This past weekend marked the start of the Copa de AndalucĂa Femenina 2025, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to kick off the season! The Trofeo Antonio GĂłmez del Moral – XII Subida al Santuario Virgen de la Sierra was my first race of the year, and it turned out to be…
Cycling isn’t just about pushing pedals—it’s about fuelling your body correctly before, during, and after your rides to maximise performance and recovery. Whether you’re training hard for race day or just enjoying long endurance rides, the right supplements can make all the difference. That’s why I’m excited to introduce MASmusculo as my new partner, helping…
As we roll into the 2025 season, I’m setting my sights on some major cycling goals. This year is all about pushing my limits, gaining experience in the peloton, and seeing how far I can go in competitive racing. My calendar is already packed with exciting events, starting with the Copa FĂ©minas de AndalucĂa, a…
The Secret Sauce to Cycling Greatness (And Not Feeling Like Roadkill) Alright, let’s be real—cyclists love to suffer. We’ll chase PRs, climb hills that look like vertical walls, and proudly limp into coffee shops drenched in sweat. But here’s the plot twist: the real gains come when you’re not even pedaling. Yep, I’m talking about…
How to Survive Winter Training: A British Girl’s Guide to Staying Warm in Spain You’d think being British-born would make me immune to cold weather. After all, I’m from the land of endless drizzle and grey skies. But no—after living in sunny Spain since I was 13, I’ve morphed into what my younger self would…
