NZ Sporting History: Sarah Ulmer

From Afternoons, 2:25 pm on 3 November 2022

Today's sporting history looks back to when our first and only ever cycling gold medal was won by Sarah Ulmer.

She was racing at the 2004 Athens Olympics when she made history.

Sarah talks to Jesse about her cycling career, that golden moment and what she's doing now.
