Enjoy the stories behind these breakthrough performances from the BRAVES' crew. Our athletes come from all walks of life and have broad and different goals, but the simple truth is that our sport rewards consistency and hard work, there's no other way.


Think you can go quicker? Maybe. I didn't think I could go this fast in the 1st place. - Ben Vella


The benefits include a structured programme tailored to your specific requirements and availability, the sense of accountability and having someone who takes an interest in you personally - Megan Gray

It was a beautiful moment that highlighted to me not to ever take myself too seriously and keep perspective on what’s really important - Peter Anderson.

We focused on building bike strength, which was identified as an important area to develop. After just 1 month, I smashed my PB in Busselton with a 4h45'!! I was able to ride hard and still felt fresh to do a great run off the bike - Alexis Girin

The main characteristics to look out for in a good coach are, clear and precise communication, high technical abilities and having the right levels of experience to go with it. I look forward to continuing with Shem as he has helped improve my performance and abilities immensely - Paul McCalman

My coach and I had first a thorough discussion on my life style. Each aspect was taken into account and based on those inputs he prepared a training schedule that perfectly fit my needs. With Shem I picked a winning lottery ticket - Roberto Carfagno

This is why my recent success means so much to me; I managed to win the mental fight and crossed the finish line, knowing that I gave all I had on that day! -Thomas

I was drawn to his
humble and gentle spirit. I also recognized
that he had a pure love for the sport and a blind,
reckless motivation to take it as far as possible. When I think of Lucky chasing his dreams it inspires me to stay hungry and do the same - Lucky
