A note from Olly
“Cricket is a really physically tasking sport which requires a lot of well-thought-out nutritional planning, so during the day I am often looking to boost my diet with protein and other greens. I found the best way to do that was with Gorilla Juice, it’s quick to make, a complete protein and even has the superfoods I need to help me with mental recovery too. It’s perfect to take with me on tours as I don’t have to worry about eating crappy snacks when out on the road, and it tastes better than any other protein shake I’ve had. I never used to use plant-based products but now I really feel the benefits of them, less bloating and more natural tasting. The team at Gorilla Juice really care about making something that’s good for you and they do it with a big smile on their face too.”

About Vickie
In January 2016 Vickie crashed on the track in Rotterdam, she was due to compete in Rio however the crash left her with some serious injuries including a Broken back, Neck and Pelvis.
Initially they thought she would be paralysed, and many people said she wouldn’t ride again and that her olympic dream was over.
That didn’t stop our Vick… oh no. Vickie started her road to recovery by training non-stop for 2 whole years before defying all doctors’ opinions by not only walking again but getting herself back into the GB cycling team.

The coaches and the senior players down at Exeter have really brought me on and it has been a great environment to be part of.

“Now, I’m ready for this next challenge up at Newcastle. I’ve always viewed Newcastle as being a great team and a great set-up, and when I’ve spoken to people who’ve experienced it up there, that’s exactly what they’ve said.
“The Falcons have a really good team culture which is evident whenever you watch them play, it’s an exciting move for me and I’m looking forward to getting up there.”
We look forward to seeing what toby will achieve this season.
