🚴♀️ About me.
Hi! I’m Amber Joseph, an elite track cyclist from the beautiful island of Barbados. My passion for cycling goes beyond the track – it’s my way of life, a journey of determination, and a commitment to pushing myself to the limits of what’s possible.
🌍 Representing Barbados on the World Stage.
Though I now train and race internationally, my heart always stays connected to the warm beaches and vibrant culture of Barbados. No matter where I go Barbados will alway be my home. Every time I race, I carry the hopes of my country with me. It’s an incredible feeling to represent my island on the World stage, and I’m proud to show the World what Barbados can do in the sport of cycling.
📝 The Journey So Far.
I started my cycling journey in Barbados and soon after moved to the uk in 2013. After only cycling for 3 years I was ranked 3rd globally in UCI Junior events, I transitioned into senior ranks. The challenges were real, but so were the rewards. In my first senior UCI season, I qualified for the 2019 World Championships in Poland, finishing 7th in the Scratch Race and 11th in the Points Race.
My career has been a thrilling ride through tough competition, from World Championships to Commonwealth Games, always with the goal of improving, evolving, and breaking barriers. I don’t back down from a challenge, whether it’s a gruelling race or overcoming setbacks.
🔄 A New Chapter: Back to Sprinting!
After competing in endurance events at an elite level for 8 years, I’ve decided to return to my sprint roots at the end of 2024. There’s something about the intensity, the speed, and the explosive power of sprinting that reignites my fire. I’m so excited about what this new chapter holds and can’t wait to see how far I can go with my new focus.
💪 What Drives Me.
What drives me? It’s the thrill of the race, the love of the sport, and the desire to be the best version of myself, on and off the bike. I believe in the power of hard work, dedication, and staying true to your passion. You only get what you put in this sport. It’s not just about the medals and podiums; it’s about constantly improving, staying hungry for success, and inspiring others to chase their own dreams while you chase yours.
I also love connecting with my fans and the people who love this sport as much as I do! You’ll find me sharing my journey, training tips, and behind-the-scenes moments on my Instagram (@amberjoseph.1), where I celebrate the highs and learn from the lows. I’m grateful for the support of my community – it means the world to me.
🌟 What’s Next?
The future is looking brighter than ever, and I’m excited for what’s ahead. With renewed motivation and focus on sprinting, I’m aiming to be the best I can be and achieve my goals of big finishes at World Cups, World Championships, and the Commonwealth Games 2026. I’m not stopping until I give everything I’ve got!
Thank you for following my journey – let’s keep pushing forward, together!
