FAMILY AFFAIR
Her brother Mathias is a professional cyclist with the men's Movistar Team. "My parents were not forcing me, but they really wanted me to have an education because they were so sure that women cannot live off cycling. My brother could do whatever he wanted because they were sure he could live from being a pro cyclist. Me and my brother have followed each other our entire lives and entire careers, and it has been totally different from each other. Starting in women's cycling in Denmark is not amateur but it almost is. We don't earn any money and we don't have any help. With my brother, he had so much help from the national federation, and he went to schools where he could study and get money from the team and, really live like a pro. I feel like I have the same opportunities as my brother now and I never felt like that before. I feel like coming in at exactly the right moment in women's cycling because I see it develop and I also know where it's coming from. As a female cyclist, I'm just super proud to see how fast it's going and also in which direction it's going in." (velonews.com, 06 Jul 2021)
