Hi, my name is Osian Morris and I am 15 years old. I am trying to raise funds so that I can race at National and European Downhill race events this year.

I am a British Cycling National Gravity Academy (NGA) Rider for 2025, identified as a “hardworking, skillful bike racer who has the potential to develop into a successful world class athlete in the future”.

However, I need some help to develop my potential.

I am in my last year of the youth category and am looking to compete at all National Series races in the UK and Continental Series races in Europe. Attending and doing well at these events are essential to increase my chances of being selected next year to wear a coveted GBR jersey at UCI World Cup events as a Junior rider.

Last year I was in the top 10 overall in a highly competitive National Downhill series and came 8th in the German IXS National Downhill Championships. In 2023, I was the Juvenile Welsh Downhill Champion and came 3rd overall in the UK National series.

Can you help me reach my dream as I continue to train hard and do my best to represent Wales and the UK in this exhilarating and demanding sport?

Thank you kindly,

Osh
