I've got to know my strength and weaknesses and the same for my competitors.
From Caroline Buchanan
I just want kids to have a chance to go and try an Olympic sport. Every kid has a bike - that's how I started, and one kid coming along and giving it a go could make that journey to the Olympics.
I started racing BMX when I was five years old. I followed in my brother's footsteps, and I was a little tomboy. When I came into the sport, there wasn't many women. I raced with the boys; I looked up to the boys, and all my mentors were boys.
The mistakes you make and lessons you learn at a young age are what gets you to an Olympic level.
I really want to win a medal and would want to win gold. It's my fire and fuel, life and dream, everything.
There's so many levels. You can rise on the day to win a national event or a world title but the level you need to rise to win an Olympics Games is another one altogether.
I'd love to be able to dominate cycling in general, not just one event.
The biggest thing I've learnt is not to limit myself by the norm or what I should be doing.
Any race I go into, I've always got the attitude of throwing myself into and wanting nothing but No. 1.
It's an honour to be a world champion, and it can never be taken away from you.
