S4 Ep57: Brother UK Cycling Podcast - Tiffany Keep interview

Tiffany Keep (DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK) will realise a dream when she rolls out for the women’s road race at the Olympic Games in Paris on August 4, 2024.

In this engaging interview, Tiffany describes her lifelong passion for cycling, her formative experiences as a mountain biker in Stellenbosch and her determination to develop her road racing skills in Europe from the moment she finished her degree studies.

Brother UK has been at Tiffany’s side for the last two seasons, as co-title sponsor of Hutchinson-Brother UK last year and now as one of three companies supporting DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK, a UCI Continental women’s team that has provided Tiffany with racing opportunities in territories as distinct as East Cleveland and Portugal, Ilkley and Luxembourg.

In this engaging interview with co-host Timothy John, Tiffany describes the value of DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK’s diverse programme and the progress she’s made as a rider since joining the squad. She pays tribute to the UK’s thriving domestic scene and reveals how riding alongside world-class rivals in events like the Tour of Britain Women and the Volta a Portugal Feminina has helped her to overcome “imposter syndrome”.

Sporting events do not come bigger than the Olympics, and Tiffany relives the joyful moment in which she received the email confirming her participation. She shares her thoughts on the 158km course, describes her final pre-race preparations in Tours, just south of Paris, and expresses her determination to give her best for her country, riding in the service of Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio.

From South Africa’s gruelling Cape Epic mountain bike stage race to the Ride London Classique, Tiffany’s varied and challenging route to the top will reach its climax, if not its culmination, in Paris. Discover her post-Games ambitions, her supportive relationships with friends, family and teammates, and learn how experience gained on the streets of Glasgow at last year’s world championships might pay dividends in the City of Light when gold medals, rather than rainbow jerseys are at stake.
