What was the inspiration behind this design?
When I designed this jersey, there were many protests in my country, Iran. All I could think about was freedom. So I created a design with a bird fleeing from the storm that is after him to survive.
What does cycling mean to you?
Actually, I find that cycling is like flying. You can always do it faster and free your mind from useless thoughts. But I am from Iran - here women are not allowed to ride bicycles. So as much as I would like to, I can very rarely sit at the bike.
Your best cycling experience?
My best experience riding a bike was when I got my first bike as a present. A beautiful pink bike with a Pinocchio motif on it. I was in the garden all day riding my bike, those were good times!
