FAQs:

These are some of the frequently asked questions I often get. Is what you’re looking for not in these FAQs? Then please get in touch with me here!

What do you do?

Before taking the leap with VéloCityGirl in 2016, I worked full time in the cycling industry for several years alongside running my blog, and presenting on ITV’s The Cycle Show. I was an Operations Manager and then PR & Social Media Manager for a cycling clothing company. I’m now a freelance writer / presenter  and soon to be published author. I also do public speaking engagements alongside hosting, with experience in TV, radio and large-scale live events.

Before contacting me, please keep in mind that I am self-employed and everything I do is my bread and butter. I can’t eat or live on great exposure & networking or work for free.

How long have you been blogging on VéloCityGirl?

I started VCG in March 2010 when I got my Pashley Princess, but have actually been in the game since 2008 with my first lifestyle blog, BlackBarbieExperience. Yes, it was really called that.

Do you write for other publications?

Yes! As a freelance writer, I’m always open to this if who I’m asked to write for and what I’m asked to write about is relevant to VCG and myself.

Would you speak or host at our event?

Again, it’s another yes… so long as I have the time, it’s relevant to myself, VCG and what I do. I’ve hosted at events ranging from Ride London to chairing talks at the Design Museum. I love panel discussions, and have talked at grassroots level events through to bigger ones like the WOW Festival. Please think about what you’d like from me being at your event, the fee you are able to offer and if you can cover travel costs.

Do you consider collaborations with brands and paid & promotional content on VéloCityGirl?

Yes! If your project is relevant to VCG, my audience and myself I’m happy to consider it. Please take a look around the blog, as well as my social media platforms (instagram | twitter | pinterest | facebook) before getting in touch to see what VCG is about and if we could work well together.
