🚴♀️ About Amber Joseph
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 a 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 from the UK and Switzerland, my heart always stays connected to the warm beaches and vibrant culture of Barbados. 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 with a natural knack for speed, and after ranking 3rd globally in UCI Junior events, I transitioned into senior ranks. The challenges have been real, but so have 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. That was just the beginning!
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’m known for my resilience – I don’t back down from a challenge, whether it’s a grueling race or overcoming setbacks.
🔄 A New Chapter: Back to Sprinting
After competing in endurance events for some time, I’ve decided to return to my sprint roots. There’s something about the sheer 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. 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.
I also love connecting with my fans! 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 focus on sprinting, I’m aiming for big podium 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!
