BBC Sport meets the downhill mountain bike world champion whose brothers inspired her to take on the men.

Rachel Atherton, 25, lives in Powys with 28-year-old brother Gee, who finished the men's World Cup season in second place, having led until the final race. They - along with older brother Dan, 31 - form Atherton Racing, a leading professional mountain biking team.

For the second time in her downhill mountain biking career, Rachel finished the year as both world champion and World Cup series winner.
