…Progress

When I was younger I never imagined that I would become a profession­al cyclist. When I started to do more races and joined my first pro team in

2014 it was the beginning of an amazing experience. Every year, every season, I have been improving and working with so many nice people. We have created memories.

…Cyclocross

I have agility on the bike but I think it’s something that I was able to do before the road because of my time doing cyclocross. I have only good memories of my time riding cyclocross and I still really like watching the races on TV.

…Mementos

At the beginning of my career I gave everything to my friends – they were happy to have my jerseys or my race numbers. I don’t even remember where I put the medals. But year after year, I find myself wanting to keep more memories and jerseys for myself. I think it’s important to keep mementos, because time passes so fast, and sometimes you can forget what you have done.
