Cycling has never felt like a job. To get paid for something that you absolutely love is amazing. I don't feel like I work. I just do it because I love it and I get paid to do it. I just think: 'What an easy way to earn a living.' Laura Trott absolutelyamazecycle share on social
Cyclists need to help themselves and should not jump red lights. I would ride in London, but I certainly wouldn't ride like that; you just have to be careful. I can understand going down the outside of traffic, but you should obey the rules of the road because we're all road users. Laura Trott carefulcyclistjump share on social
I was thinking on the rollers today that, before a race, if I could just pick my brain up and put it on the side of the track for four minutes, it would be perfect. Laura Trott brainminuteperfect Change image and share on social
When I first started out in cycling, if there were two girls there, that was successful; but now, if there are 20 girls there, it's just unbelievable. The growth of the sport is just incredible. Laura Trott cyclegirlgrowth Change image and share on social
I don't like the road. I love being on the track. I like being indoors and the fact I'm not battling past 200 other riders. Laura Trott battlefactindoor Change image and share on social
My mum was my inspiration. As cliche as that sounds, she was the reason that we started. She chose cycling to lose weight. I was only eight at the time, so I just followed what my mum did. Laura Trott chooseclichecycle Change image and share on social
I said back in 2010 when I was rubbish at the European championships, 'If I never win an omnium until 2012, I don't care.' I then won Olympic gold. Laura Trott backcarechampionship Change image and share on social
It's all well and good having a women's Tour de France - which I think we need and I think we should have. But I think we should slowly build it in and not just go 'Bam!' with three weeks over the same course and same length of time as the men's. Laura Trott bambuildfrance share on social
People find it hard to fit exercise into their working-day life. Nine to five jobs take up most of your day, so it's always difficult. But a little can go a long way. It can literally be 10 or 15 minutes of exercise that can be of real benefit. Laura Trott benefitdaydifficult share on social
