British national cyclo-cross champion Xan Crees remembers a moment this season when she got changed for a race in the back of a Vauxhall Corsa. Now, aged 24, she’s set to become a professional rider for the first time in her life.
With her new project, OGT p/b USE, Crees has recruited her own sponsors to allow her to pursue a full-time career in cycling. She will ride this coming cyclo-cross season as part of a “one-rider team”, though she hopes to recruit more team-mates within three years.
