Braveheart gets new mentor

Former Scottish national cycling coach Graeme Herd has taken on a new role with the Braveheart Cycling Fund where he will serve as a mentor and coordinate special projects including the organization of foreign training camps and racing trips for the fund’s riders.

"It's a great opportunity to get involved in a very worthwhile initiative," said Herd. "Although no longer national coach, I remain involved in the sport at the highest level through coaching athletes, and I'm delighted to extend that involvement through the Braveheart Fund. There are some talented young riders emerging in Scotland, and it's great that the fund can help them try to fulfil their ambitions."
