Founder & Director
I found a new interest in road cycling 8 years ago and I honestly never thought it would take as much of a hold on me as it has. Now, I find myself thinking ‘what was life before cycling?’
My first sportive was the Maratona de Dolomites and there really isn’t any way of describing it besides that it was simply amazing. I got the pre-sportive nerves (do I need the loo, do I not?), the constant need and want to check my tires (debating several times of whether or not they needed any more air), the feeling of an absolute amateur as I looked around waiting for the start while surrounded by "experienced" cyclists with shaved legs and Pinarello Dogma bikes! I needn’t have worried, as I loved every minute (and hour!) of the day and my summer of training in the Alps surrounding Verbier ensured that I was ready for the challenge. Who knew though, that while participating in my very first sportive, my idea to start Kudos Cycling would be born.
