After several years competing in triathlon and duathlon, Lauren Dickson decided to try her hand at road racing for the first time in April 2024. Just over a year later, the Scot is making a name for herself and attracting offers from several top teams.
This week, Dickson has been racing the Tour of Britain Women for the Handsling Alba Development Road Team, one of the smallest teams in the race. An unlucky puncture on the first day left her out of the General Classification picture, but she excelled in the difficult second and third stages.
