I don't think I'll still be riding at 40. There are a couple of people who are still riding after having kids, like Mary King, but people say that you lose your nerve after you have kids. It's the risk.

People still text me to say that there is something about me in the paper, and what really annoys me is that if it's nasty, I then have to go and have a look, even though actually I don't want to know.

Sometimes people will come up in the street and say: 'My daughter loves you, will you sign an autograph for her?' And some people send me stuff. I don't mind it at all: as a sportswoman, you owe them because they support you.

It's stupid to say that I don't like being in the public eye, but I don't like doing stuff that's not needed.

I did rattle a couple of (fences) but I think that's quite good because if you don't touch them you get a bit casual.

Virtually everything that gets printed about me is wrong anyway, so it doesn't really matter what you say.
