No, I didn't see that. I have heard about it happening the odd time over the last few years. Those ultra-endurance events are.... a bit curious.... Nutjob central.a chap i know cycles with castleknock cycling club. he was saying there are often groans when orla wlash accompanies her dad to their spins. a 'there goes the chance of a nice easy cycle' sort of groan.
did you see the guardian article from a couple of years ago about how women are starting to take over in some ultra endurance events? as in win them outright?
Orla Walsh is the pedalingheroine one off Instagram? I followed her a few years ago but got kind of bored when she turned into an influencer social-media machine. She's clearly a very talented cyclist, but it beggars belief the amount of people who follow her relative to her relative lack of success. Compare her to Cecile Ludwig, Demi Vollering or even Anna Van Der Breggan, who is arguably the best female cyclist in the world atm. I guess I will never understand social meda.
