Profile: I am a cyclist returning to racing after a break of 10 years. I suffer from epilepsy and am recovering from chronic fatigue, but participate in races all the same! I never let anything get me down - I was involved in a car crash on the way to the National Cycling Centre last October but still took part in the Women's Team Sprint. I have changed medication many times, but hopefully this year is going to blossom into the start of something successful. I am a Master, and my aim is to do well in the Pursuit, 500m TT and road race, whilst still trying to overcome the challenges I face with epilepsy and chronic fatigue.
