Team GB cyclist Anna Henderson has shared how she got into the sport after winning a silver medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

The 25-year-old spoke to a press conference, when she was asked about her unusual route into biking - having previously been an alpine skier until she was 15.

“I’m 10 years now cycling and I kind of forget about my past life to be honest!”, she said.

“It’s been a journey in cycling and it’s one with many ups and downs but it’s been a beautiful road.”
