Welcome BACK to the fourth episode of FEMME MATTERS. A new cycling vlog series, shining a light women's cycling, celebrating incredible women within the cycling space and their stories. The series features female riders from every bike discipline - road, gravel, mountain biking, track.
This week we interview the incredible Manon Lloyd - beagle Mum, top GCN presenter and ex-professional cyclist who raced both track and road and represented GB and Wales. Starting her cycling life with a triathlon, Manon fell completely in love with the sport.
In this vlog we chat about her cycling career, her proudest moments, advice to women wanting to start cycling, thoughts and feelings on retiring from professional cycling and the honest struggles and changes that come with it.
A must watch for anyone.

A little about me
Thanks for dropping by.
I’m your classic runner turned newbie cyclist.
For years I feared riding a bike - I was afraid of traffic, clipping in, couldn’t get my head around lycra, chamois cream and clambering up hills on a bike.
I didn’t believe that riding a bike would give me the same de-stress, mental download or sense of freedom that life as a long distance runner had given me before my knees ground to dust.
Fast forward to 2021 and picking up a second hand CAAD10 changed my life for the better. Not just physically and mentally. But also providing a sense of community and belonging - which is magic. The cycling community is just magic.
So I’m here. To hopefully inspire others to not fear the bike - the lycra, the clipping in. And come share the passion, freedom and indescribable joy that comes from being on the bike. I truly believe that the bike life is the best life and everyone should be able to enjoy it.
Come with me on some adventures.
