Who We Are

Monument Cycling started off as a pipe dream sketched on a notepad. Now, those ideas are coming to life.

We are pro cycling race promoters dedicated to supporting the British pro cycling scene and giving supporters access to their favourite athletes.

Monument Cycling is a race organiser, media publisher, and digital content marketing agency.

    FOUNDER

    After years of racing bikes while completing a law degree, I decided to follow my passion into cycling media and bring the insights I’d learnt as an elite rider to the world of digital media.

    I bootstrapped Monument Cycling's media reach to millions of views per year and realised the power cycling had to engage with people of all backgrounds and be a positive force in the world.

    Monument Cycling is my way to give back to the community that has shaped who I am today.

    PARTNERSHIPS

    I was lucky enough to grow up in the middle of Exmoor and got into mountain biking from a young age.

    Since racing the London Nocturne, I have always wanted to help others experience the buzz and excitement of a city centre race in our historic Cambridge.

    Day to day I run a consultancy firm that specialises in delivering operational improvement primarily in manufacturing organisations.

    HOSPITALITY

    Having first experienced a bike bought from Mill Road I have been cycling ever since.

    I was fortunate enough to be a volunteer when the Tour de France visited in 2014 it has been a dream to be part of creating an event that celebrates Cambridge and cycling.

    Outside of community event organisation and cycling, I am an HR and People professional working to support, enable and empower people to excel.
