BIO

I played a few sports in my teens but never seemed to make a mark. I found myself good at distance running and looked into doing triathlons. While shopping for a tri bike I found a flyer for a mountain bike race. I took my old bike and went to the race. It was cold, wet and muddy and I suffered through the whole race. Sadly my brain told me this was good for me and I have been hooked ever since.

I mainly ride by myself and find it a good way to clear my head and test my physical

limits. I love racing and I try to race as much as possible whether it be road or mountain bike. I am a very competitive person and love to win.

When away from bikes I relax by hanging out with my fiancée Sarah and I have a strong interest in cars and motor sport. I am currently into watching Family Guy and top gear. I also enjoy listening to alternative music.

My goal is to evolve as a person and always give 100%.
