Career

In 2017 Kyffin finished in the top ten during the 2017 British National Hill Climb Championships.[3]

In 2018 Kyffin joined the British road racing team Ribble Pro Cycling, finishing twelfth in the under-23 element of the British National Road Race Championships.[4]

In 2019 he participated in the Tour de Yorkshire,[5] the British National Road Race Championships, and the British National Time Trial Championships; he also competed in the Saudi Tour in 2020.
