Specialisation seems to be becoming a thing of the past. Not only are modern riders happy to mix it up between road racing categories but some are happy too to excel across multiple racing disciplines. Zoe Bäckstedt is definitely one of those riders: Jr world road race champion, Jr Time Trial world champion, and a silver medal at the U23 Cyclocross Worlds should give you a decent flavour of what she's capable of.

Comparisons to Tom Pidcock, given both are British too, aren't that much of a stretch. Zoe rides for the EF Education-Tibco-SVB squad for 2023, and we managed to sneak 10 minutes with her bike - the brand new Cannondale SuperSix - at Opening Weekend to bring you a full gallery.

Senior Tech Writer

Will joined the Cyclingnews team as a reviews writer in 2022, having previously written for Cyclist, BikeRadar and Advntr. He’s tried his hand at most cycling disciplines, from the standard mix of road, gravel, and mountain bike, to the more unusual like bike polo and tracklocross. He’s made his own bike frames, covered tech news from the biggest races on the planet, and published countless premium galleries thanks to his excellent photographic eye. Also, given he doesn’t ever ride indoors he’s become a real expert on foul-weather riding gear. His collection of bikes is a real smorgasbord, with everything from vintage-style steel tourers through to superlight flat bar hill climb machines.
