LATE STARTER
She did not become a professional cyclist until she was in her thirties. "I like to measure myself against new challenges. I think I am in a good moment. Having started late, I still have a lot of enthusiasm and I still see room for improvement in many aspects. I would like to see how far I can go." (zikloland.com, 24 Sep 2019)
