2013 has been a great year for me, with full support from Rose Vaujany Team I was able to focus 100% on racing and I made sure I gave it everything. I had 3 goals coming in to the season, to take the win at Fort William, win the overall 4X Pro Tour Series and win World Champs, and although World Champs didn’t go quite to plan I can honestly say I gave it everything and 2013 has been the best year of racing I've had so far.

Since the end of season I've been making the most of not training. I've been riding as much as possible, making the most of all the riding around my new home in the Forest of Dean and more importantly planning more riding for 2014. With 2013 coming to an end I'm looking forward to a change of focus in 2014. After having two years off I will be switching back to racing downhill. New challenges, new goals and new adventures await.

Thank you to everyone who has made 2013 possible for me and see you all next year.

 Stick to the right hand side line all the way through and you'll be fine. More pop on the take off males the right easier than the left

 Wishing you good luck for a fast and injury-free season, Katy. Was really proud to see our Brit girl seriously hucking the pro lines in 4X2013.

 footage was great, but the song choice just about ruined it.

 Couldn't disagree more, nice to have some mellow tunes fitting in with the vibe. I prefer that to the usual car alarm crap that's originated of late

 This is why choosing Music for a video is one if the hardest things to do and people ALWAYS comment on it, just like Art, music suits people tastes and I could never keep everyone happy, glad some people liked it tho!!! Unfortunately, I can't use copyrighted stuff which is obviously restricting but when I'm making a chilled winter edit with an interview, dubstep or Alarm Crap wouldn't really be the most suitable option!

 Does anyone know the song? I (obviously) liked it.

 I wasn't a fan but that's not the reason I didn't like specifically, I just didn't think it fitted with the video

 That's more of what I was getting at. It's not that I didn't like the music, I just don't think it fit the video. I still enjoyed it, just not a fan of tha tunes
