Eileen Roe (born 24 September 1989) is a Scottish former racing cyclist,[2] who competed between 2008 and 2019, including for UCI Women's Teams Wiggle–Honda, Lares–Waowdeals and WNT–Rotor Pro Cycling. Roe was the winner of the 2014 and 2016 British National Circuit Race Championships.[3][4]
Born in Dunfermline, Roe began competitive cycling at the age of 10. She has been employed at the Edinburgh Bicycle Cooperative on a part-time basis for several years, which allowed her the time to dedicate to her cycling career.[5] In October 2014 the Wiggle–Honda team announced that Roe would join them with immediate effect to ride in the Australian criterium season and the subsequent 2015 season.[6] Roe joined Belgian team Lares–Waowdeals for the 2016 season.[7] At the start of 2017, Roe became a member of the Team WNT squad.[8]
