Peggy competes across race road, track and cyclocross, currently ranked first nationally for cyclocross in her age and gender category. Peggy is the cyclocross U16 National Champion of 2024, the National Trophy Series Winner of 2023/24 and recently won the National Trophy Series of 2024/25. In the 2024 road season Peggy raced in Belgium and came 6th in Ghent Wevelegem and 3rd at Zedelgem.
"This cyclocross season I won my first international race, the Telenet Superprestige at Ruddervoorde. That moment stood out to me this season, because it was a first, and the course was way more difficult than any I have encountered yet.
My plans for next cyclocross season are to race World Cups with the GB Cycling Team and learn as much as I can about the courses and generally improve myself as a rider. For the coming road season I am aiming for a podium in Ghent Wevelgem and Tour of Flanders, but try to balance it with my GCSEs. In the future I would like to become World Cyclocross Champion and race road with a pro team.
The GLL Sports Foundation has helped me improve my off-bike training. I use the gym once or twice a week, which has clearly led to me getting stronger. The award means I can go regularly and not worry about the cost. Also, last road season I had a nasty crash and I was able to get a physio appointment; that was awesome because I was given some exercises to recover. I used the award to pay for the Evo Devo Cyclocross training camp, which was an amazing experience."
We will be looking forward to seeing Peggy's progress!
