Awen Roberts Wales
Awen Roberts started riding at her local cycling club in Carmarthen, Wales. She was inspired by Geraint Thomas winning the 2018 Tour De France and watching broadcasts of Women’s World Tour road races. Her cycling journey has steadily progressed through her youth and junior years, winning several youth titles and representing Great Britain as a junior rider at international races.
Awen says, “I’m a very determined rider who always gives 100%. I’m a willing team player, favour the harder terrain and love a good climb. My sprint is competitive, and I have a positive outlook on racing. I feel great about signing with CANYON//SRAM Generation and look forward to racing with my new teammates and learning from one another.”
