Beth Shriever MBE

Essex-born Beth Shriever’s road to the Olympics began at just nine years old when she was invited down to Braintree BMX club in Essex. Falling in love with the sport, she had her eyes set on gold from the start.

And in Tokyo, just four years after breaking through the senior ranks, Beth made her dream real when she won the Women's BMX racing gold medal.

Alongside her success as an Olympic champion, Shriever hopes to be a role model to young female BMX riders all over the UK. She was awarded an MBE in the 2022 New Year Honours.
