Para World Champs 2026 was an absolute blast. 13 Athletes, 4 Nations and a of ton wins and hardware to match. I’m honored to be able to support such an amazing group of people. Paracycling is what cycling is all about. Grit, dedication, struggle, heartbreak and elation in every single race. I can’t wait to see what this program can become.

The new @lightbicycle Airia wheels are insane!

These might just be the best performance wheelset you can get for between £1,000 - £1,400.

The boys @rogue.cyclingclub are a Light Bicycle dealer here in the UK. Fancy getting your hands on a pair as fast as these wheels will make you? Get yourself over to Rogue, get a dream wheelset, and let your mind boggle at the value for money you're getting!

A bit of history, a bit of bikes, and a bit of history with bikes. Solid week in England’s heat…

national champs

Day1. road race:
Really happy with the race I put out despite getting dropped after about 5 minutes. Really pleased setting new pbs in every distance

Day 2 tt
another race I was happy with smashing the pbs from the day before .

Couldn’t have been happier with both races as it is my first national champs. It was also great to race against the world champ @fin_graham22 and many other paralympians .
