Alex Richardson might not be a name you are familiar with but he’s got one hell of a story. In 2015, Alex was enjoying a successful career in finance when he took up cycling as a hobby aged 26. Just a few months later and with a young family to support he put that all on the line, giving up his job and pursuing his new dream of becoming a professional cyclist which he achieved in just 12 months. Fast forward to the end of 2019, the 29-year-old has just signed with one of the most talked about teams in the pro peloton - Corendon-Circus - where he'll be supporting the likes of Mathieu van der Poel in the classics. This is his story.
