Sport

I enjoy all sports. Throughout my youth I played soccer and Gaelic football. I also swam and played tennis. I've always enjoyed cycling, as my dad races competitively in both road racing & triathlon. In 2021 as an under 12, I went to my first road race to try out cycling, the Peter Bidwell race, hosted by Drogheda Wheelers & I won! That was it. I'd found my favourite sport.
