Jayme Richardson

Jayme Richardson (née Paris), born 27 April 1989,[1] is an Australian Paralympic cyclist. She was born in the Sydney suburb of Blacktown[1] with cerebellar ataxia due to asphyxiation at birth.[2] She began cycling in October 2004 after seeing a post Athens Paralympic interview with Silver Medalist Claire McLean where Claire said Australia needed more female Para-cyclists. At the time Jayme was a swimmer and was doing very well, having competed both through school to CHS Level and out of school to National Level, however she felt that there was something greater out there for her and decided that a change was needed.[1]
