Caroline Sarah J. Alexander (born 3 March 1968)[1] is a cross-country mountain biker and road cyclist born in Barrow-in-Furness. She was a swimmer as a child and did not cycle until she was 20. She first rode a bike in competition in a triathlon: she came second in the swimming and was fastest on the bike. She entered her first mountain bike race, which she won. Within a year she was one of the top three mountain-bike racers in the UK. She left her job as a draughtswoman in Barrow shipyards and became a full-time cyclist.[2]

She represented Britain at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta and the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.[
