Dani secured team pursuit gold at London 2012, setting a world record time in the process, before securing three consecutive UCI Track World Championships titles between 2011 and 2013.
Her achievements have culminated in being awarded an MBE and induction into the British Cycling Hall of Fame following her retirement in 2018. Post-career, she has become a well-respected cycling coach and broadcaster, helping establish Rowe & King Coaching with her husband Matt.
Dani joined London Dynamo and friends for social laps around Richmond Park before we all headed over to Cycle Exchange for a fireside chat.
Our women’s captain Ellie Cousins chaired the Q&A and said: “Interviewing Dani was an inspiring experience and a real highlight for our club. She was not only warm and down-to-earth, but also full of practical wisdom.

“From the importance of training in a way that suits your lifestyle, and recognising that more is not always better, to the role of support networks in reaching big goals.
“Dani reflected on the huge progress in women’s cycling, acknowledging that while there is still a way to go in achieving true parity, the future looks bright.”
