For their final guest this year, Emma and Manon are joined by a four-time World Junior Champion… Cat Ferguson. 

Cat joins us fresh from a very intense team camp as she looks back on her first season racing with Movistar.

She shares what it’s like moving from Yorkshire to Andorra on your own at just 19 years old, what she misses most from home and the shocking moment she was taken out of a race by a fan.

And, Cat also shares an iconic post-Worlds celebration.
