Louise-Anna Ferguson is a Scottish born, Queenstown based rider who’s been quietly getting on with riding a bike insanely well across multiple disciplines. 2022 is a big year for Louise-Anna where she’s already taken part in Red Bull Formation, taken a top 20 in her first EWS and 4th place in Leogang at her second ever world cup after missing a day of practice. We sat down in the Tweed Valley to chat about her story so far, her experience in New Zealand, at Red Bull Formation and her plans for the future. With riders like this around, the future is very bright. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Louise-Anna Ferguson.

Supporting Partners
We Are One Composites
I’ve been using WeAreOne wheels for nearly 4 years now and I’m a massive fan. I’m currently running a Faction 29er up front and a Union 27.5 in the rear and I love them. I feel like they strike a lovely balance of being precise but not so stiff that they punish you for being a millimetre offline. The quality and finish of the product is also second to none.
As a downtime listener, you can get 15% off any Onyx Vesper wheelsets and all rim-only products from WeAreOne until 31st July 2022. All you need to do is to use the code ‘VESPER15’ at the checkout over on weareonecomposites.com.
Cycology
Cycology aren’t afraid to stand out from the crowd and have a wide range of incredible quality riding kit for you. A direct to consumer model means the quality is amazing for the price that you pay and what’s even better is that until 5th July you can get 20% off their entire range by using the code ‘DOWNTIME20‘ on the checkout over at cycologygear.co.uk. Head over and check out the range now. There’s a very clever online sizing app to help you choose the right size, free shipping for all orders over £25 and 90 day money back returns too, so you can order with no worries.
