Finally married my queen this Valentine's Day. Such a happy day with everyone 😁

Coaching is sick. DH. XC. Enduro. Road. And now...some gravel 👀

When you coach athletes who want nothing but the best out of themselves, you go through the highs and the lows with them. Sure your only job is to slap together some workouts and have a few phone calls and you never put out a single watt, but it's more than that.

has had good legs and a good head space all season - especially heading to North America. Things didn't always go the way you'd want, which impacts the confidence (rider and yes, sometimes even coach). But it was awesome to see him work up the confidence to roll the dice on a 110km solo breakaway, ultimately normalizing more power for 7h45m than most of us can hold for 20min! 🚀

The point? Athletes getting what they want makes me feel good too!

Epic trip to Rakaposhi Basecamp. I was suffering badly from the heat for the first time in my life and almost turned around after 2 hours. The team kept me going and got me a coke, then when the clouds rolled in I felt like a totally different person. We rallied the next several hours and camped at basecamp with the most insane views of Mt Rakaposhi and the Minapin glacier. We rode one of the best descents on the planet the next morning.
