"My parents wanted my brother, Ryan, and I to grow up outdoors and not inside watching TV, or any of that, and we were always into different sports - skateboarding, scooters, bikes, skiing. Being a very outdoorsy family, bikes were always part of our life. I was homeschooled so we would always ride to the park to do our classes or ride here and there. My dad did group rides on the weekend and that caught the interest of my brother and I. There was a BMX track close to us, so we did that, I loved it but I was terrible. My brother and I nagged my dad to ride our bikes out on the road, but my parents were very cautious about us being kids and riding out on the road. I ended up using my mum's old bike, too big for me, but by the end of 2013, when I was 11 years old, my brother and I got our own bikes and started racing in 2014." (cyclingnews.com, 04 Dec 2020)

General Interest

General
HOMESCHOOLED
She was homeschooled while growing up. "I finished high school two years early because I started school early. My brother is a year-and-a-half older than me, and so, my parents decided that they were going to homeschool him and I was like, 'If he's learning his ABCs, I want to do that, too'. My mum let me learn along with my brother, and so I started school early and continued through. I loved school and it was no problem for me. I wanted to learn everything I could. I was homeschooled all my life, right through to college. I loved being homeschooled. We were filed with a private school where my mum did the curriculum, she was a teacher and everything. My mum is very smart and has a biochemistry and microbiology degree. It was really nice because there was no hiding from your work. If you didn't do the work, mum knew. You had to do the work and study, and that held me accountable to get my own work done. It was nice because she would let us get ahead, do more school work, so that we could then take time off to go to a stage race or travel. It wasn't easy at all but I loved it."
