LYDIA IGLESIAS | DON’T STOP NOW | THE TRAKA 360

Always smiling, no matter what odds are up against her, Lydia Iglesias is the youngest rider on the Café du Cycliste Gravel Team. The Spaniard – who works as a nurse when not competing on the bike – still has a long way to travel in her cycling career, we think. And this girl just keeps going, her marvellous engine is matched with a never-say-die spirit. Last year she won the prestigious La Traka in the 200km category. This year she went for the longer course of 360km, a distance she’s never ridden in one hit.
