What a day!

Yesterday, I made a spontaneous decision to race in the Shifty 50 Shorty XC event instead of racing my road bike, and it turned out to be an amazing choice. I’m thrilled that I placed 3rd in Open Women .

Surrounding myself with inspiring and motivating people has been invaluable in pushing me to try my best. This experience is a reminder of the importance of living life to the fullest and embracing new challenges and adventures!

A huge thank you to everyone who supported me along the way!

Here’s to more exciting adventures and pushing our limits!

Women’s Racing This Sunday

The team at Geelong & Surf Coast Cycling Club are continuing to lead the way in creating more opportunities for women in cycling.

Women’s racing at GSCC began back in 2017, driven by a passionate group who wanted to make the sport more welcoming and inclusive — and it’s been growing ever since.

This Sunday marks an exciting addition to the calendar with the Women’s Handicap Classic, a great chance to get involved, test yourself, and be part of a supportive racing community.

If you’ve been thinking about giving racing a go, this is the perfect place to start.

Quote of the Week: "It’s not fun if it’s not dangerous!". Wise words from my 14 year old 👏

Fisken Road definitely fits the bill! 😆
Feel the adrenaline, embrace the thrill! Especially in the wet 🫠

How incredible are bikes?
They have this amazing power to lift our spirits and transform any negative mood into a positive one. The views we experience from the saddle are unmatched—each ride offers a unique perspective that only those who share the passion for biking can truly appreciate.

For us, biking isn't just a hobby; it's woven into our very identity. That's why riding buddies are so crucial—they're not just companions on the trail, but partners in sharing the thrill, joy, and adventures that come from living life to the fullest. It’s about being in the moment, not just watching life pass by.

Who’s your riding buddy?

Tag them below and let’s celebrate the connections we make on two wheels!

Sag confirmed, rebound counted

Brakes bite, gears smooth, chain quiet

Quick mobility to wake up hips/ankles

Visualize lines, breathe early
Commit to exits, not doubts

First crack at Otway Odssey 👌

Not the race I planned, but the race I needed. Blew up early on the first climb and had to fight for every kilometre. After a challenging week, crossing that line meant more than a PR.

Keep showing up, even when it’s hard.

Thanks to my amazing support crew - you guys rock!

As always thanks to for having my bike race ready!
