Career

Gullen began his racing career in his native Yorkshire, however he often credits his success to the brutal conditions at the famed Salt Ayre World Champs in Lancashire.[3] Gullen has a host of victories to his name including GC wins in the Tour of the North[4] and notable National B races. James’ most famed discipline is undoubtedly the Time Trial, with numerous victories and strong placings at national events. Gullen truly rode himself into the history books by riding an 18.16 10 mile TT,[5] an achievement which at the time was the 5th fastest ever. Gullen has also written his name into cycling folklore by claiming 777 victories on the North West's most famous Strava segments.[6]

Throughout his young career Gullen has enjoyed corporate support from a variety of cycling sponsors including Hope, Pinarello, Rotor and Starley. Gullen's successes have also brought about a number of private sponsors including Lambert and Butler, Ruddles and The Barn coffee shop of Scorton, Lancashire.

In the winter of 2013, Gullen led a revolution in the North West cycling scene which saw numerous cyclists join specially organised winter teams. Gullen began this revolution by forming Team Hustle, he then went on to ride for Team Gabba,[7] and was recently announced as team captain for a newly established team, Big Northern Setup,[8] a team which promises to aid riders of Northern heritage through their winter training.
