Irish rider and Sports Institute Northern Ireland (SINI) Athlete Connor McConvey, who rides for the belgian registered An Post Sean Kelly team, has decided to take an indefinite break from Professional Cycling. Connor has explained “Its a decision thats taken me 3-4months to make. It was really a question of, do I want this to be my life for the next number of years? The sport is too hard if you don’t love it all”.
He said ”The support I’ve had from my club as an underage rider, to all the MTB teams, national federation, SINI, ISC, An Post, family, friends, coach and team mates thus far has been great, and they have all supported the decsion super well, so cheers”
“Its time now for me to get out of the Cycling bubble for the first time in my life, to experience a bit of life and to find myself as a person”
SINI would like to wish Connor all the very best for the future.
