A young North Belfast child is taking the Irish BMX scene by storm after riding the bikes for just over a year.
Samia Hughes started riding BMX just over a year ago after she started cycling during the Covid lockdown with her dad when she was seven.
Starting on a small children's bike in Mallusk Park, the nine-year-old's dad noticed that Samia had a natural ability for riding bikes and started to take her to other places such as the bike track in Ormeau Park to practice, before they arrived at The Ramp House in East Belfast where her BMX journey began.
