In this episode I talk with Becky Gribble. Becky got into cycling in 2019 as a complimentary sport to her swimming, she fell in love with it, joined a team and started racing. That was until 2020 paused racing.
In 2021 Becky will be racing for clash racing (www.clashracing.uk), an alternative racing team founded in Bristol. Go check them out, they've got a real fresh approach to cycle racing.
I started this podcast to talk to cyclists about their stories which I've personally found inspiring. Stories such as big cycling adventures, huge feats of endurance but also recovery from crashes or life changing events.
Back in late 2019 Becky had a seizure and was diagnosed with epilepsy. In the episode we have a chat about how this has changed her sporting life, what she's done to adapt and we also talk about her racing plans for 2021.
I'd like to thank Becky for coming on and talking about this as I know it's still quite fresh for her.

Thanks all
Dan
