Olivia Ray: From the Lions Den to the World Tour

December 19, 2021

In this weeks episode we chat with New Zealand Criterium Champion and winner of Legion’s ‘Into the Lions Den’ super crit, Olivia Ray. 
Olivia races for the Human Powered Health (HPH) team (formerly known as Rally) who are stepping up to the Women’s World Tour in 2022.
Olivia and I discuss how her results in the U.S and her ‘potential’ led to HPH offering her a contract into the top tier of cycling. We learn about how she navigates races as a pure sprinter and of course, we dive deep into her ‘Legion -Into the Lions Den’ victory where she took home $15,000 USD!
We find out what Olivia is expecting in her first year as a World Tour Professional and also listen to Olivia’s thoughts on the ‘body positive’ movement she is so passionate about.
