Lorna Breetzke
Co-founder of Elgin CC Ladies and multidiscipline racer
Lorna has spent the last four years making Elgin Cycling Club more inclusive. After co-founding ECC Ladies, the club’s low women’s participation has rocketed to 95 members, making up 50% of the club’s total membership.
Lorna then turned her hand to improving women’s involvement in racing, which now sees many women racing in the club’s summer time trial league. Lorna also races multiple disciplines to a high level.
“I found cycling at a very hard time in my life in 2017. The minute I jumped on a bike I felt something I never had before. I believe the bicycle can save lives, including mine.”
