Biography

Eva is a multidisciplinary cyclist who rides for Leicester forest rockets cycling club and has done since she was 5 years old.

She loves nothing more than spending time on two wheels either for training, racing or with friends/family.

Following a successful background of racing as a younger child, Eva would now like to commit to National races and youth events to progress her riding further.

She is currently enjoying riding at Derby velodrome, and has recently completed the local cyclocross league events. Despite being amongst the youngest in her races, she has managed to have podium places in both styles of riding, but track riding is definitely a firm favourite!

The award from JHMT, means so much. After a turbulent early 2022 season, Eva has thrown herself into training for 2023. The award will mean she can experience a National level event with appropriate equipment and accomodation to ensure she can give her best on the day.
