    From the dizzy heights of professional cycling to forging a career in fashion design, that's the road ahead for kiwi Connor Brown

    From the dizzy heights of professional cycling to forging a career in fashion design, that's the road ahead for kiwi Connor Brown


    The 23 year old was dealt some frustrating news in recent weeks with his pro team Qhubeka Nexthash losing their licence to compete in the UCI World Tour.

    Rather than try and find a ride elsewhere ... Brown's opted to hang up the bike and study fashion in Sydney.

    He says he might not be lost to the sport, completely.



    Brown won gold on the track at the junior world champs in 2016 before switching to the road.
