2014 was a great year for women’s cycling, and these are just some of the women  which inspired us, showing how hard work and determination pay off.

Not only are these women incredible riders, they have been great ambassadors for the sport, demonstrating how thrilling women’s racing can be, and inspiring more of us to get out on our bikes, whether on the road, track, or a muddy field or forest.

Here’s to another great year in 2015!
