Reilly’s latest Ambassador is no stranger to racing, Christina
Wiejak is a hugely talented cyclist who has been winning races across the disciplines for many years including 4th place at Elite National Cyclo Cross Champs in 2022.
Reilly first met Christina after her impressive win on the sand
at Battle on the Beach 2024 and promptly lent her a Gradient for her next gravel challenge, The Gralloch. 2024 UCI Gravel World Championships qualifier was in May 2024 and Christina finished in the Top 20 nestled between the World Class gravel pro athletes.
“The Gradient was flawless” she said “the improved confidence on the rough stuff was stark! Nice to be on a UK brand in a world class field.”
Next up, she took her Gradient to Lauf Gritfest -in June 2024
where she came in 1st on both the Prologue and Day 1 and 2nd
on Day 2.
“Yet again, the Gradient was flawless” she said but I suspect her talent and determination also played a part!
Even when she isn’t racing, Christina can be found
challenging herself on the bike. She recently tried her hand at the Fastest Known Time on South Downs Way in a
Day. She completed the 160km ride from Winchester to Eastbourne in 8 hours 59 minutes. 8:43 of pedalling time, and 16 minutes of opening and closing gates and filling up water bottles!
Future plans on her Reilly Gradient include:
Kings Cup Gravel - 14 September 2024
Gravel Wales (Ruthin) UCI Gravel World Series - 22 September 2024
